Cebu Description |
|
The City of Cebu (Cebuano: Dakbayan sa Sugbo; Tagalog: Lungsod ng Cebu) is the provincial capital of Cebu in the Philippines and is the second most important metropolitan center in the country. The City lies on the eastern shore of the island of Cebu and is the first Spanish settlement in the country. It is the country's main domestic shipping hub and is home to more than 80% of the country's inter-island shipping companies. Cebu is also the main hub, outside of the capital, of international flights into the country and is the most important center of commerce, trade, and industry in the Visayas and Mindanao, the southern parts of the country. It is because of this and other important aspects that Cebu City is dubbed the Queen City of the South. According to the official 2000 census, it has a population of 718,821 people in 147,600 households.

Cebu City is the center of a metropolitan area called Metro Cebu, which includes the cities of Mandaue, Lapu-Lapu, and Talisay. Metro Cebu has a total population of more than 2 million people. The Mactan-Cebu international Airport, located in Lapu-Lapu City is only a twenty-minute drive away from Cebu City. To the northeast of The City are Mandaue City and the town of Consolacion, to the west are Toledo City, the towns of Balamban, and Asturias, to the South are Talisay City and the town of Minglanilla. Across Mactan Strait to the east is Mactan island where Lapu-Lapu City is located. (Wikipedia.org)
