Most Beautiful Flower Gardens in Cebu

In today’s booming tourism of Cebu, a visit to the Queen City of the South is incomplete without dropping by her gardens scattered around Cebu. This post is intended for those looking for IG-worthy flower gardens in Cebu.

1. Original Sirao Flower Garden – Little Amsterdam of Cebu

Dubbed to be the “Little Amsterdam” or “Mini Holland” of Cebu, Sirao Garden (or Celosia Flower Farm) is an 8,000-square-meter piece of uphill land. You will be seeing different types of flowers there, but the star is the celosia, which fully blooms in October. There are also bicycles, a windmill, fountains, and picket fences to resemble the fields of Amsterdam.
