San Pedro Metropolitan Cathedral — Attraction in Davao City

One of the biggest and with unique structure Cathedral I've been. It is a round building which you can see 360° view from the altar.

It has a big fan on top so its a bit windy plus the church is open both sides so its not really hot even there's a lot of people.

Church staff also organizes seats during the mass, they will assist you if there's still vacant seats so you can sit.

Restroom: FREE (you can give donation voluntarily)

All in all the place is very nice, if you love visiting churches San Pedro Cathedral is A MUST TO VISIT. So add it to your list!

Outside the church there is food stall, small stalls for saints figurines, bracelet and many more holy accessories.

There's park in front of church and fastfoods...

The San Pedro Cathedral was probably one of the biggest highlights for me visiting Davao. Note that there is pretty much no parking...
