Immaculate Conception Cathedral

In 1872, a Spanish expedition proclaimed the Immaculate Conception of Mary as the patrones of Puerto Princesa. It was almost a century later under the late Bishop Gregorio Espiga that the cathedral was built. It's angular structure, different from most churches in other parts of the country, provides visitors an interesting glimpse of unconvential religious architecture. The church can be seen easily when approaching Puroto Princesa by boat.


A statue of Rizal is in a nearby park. The cathedral is situated on Rizal Avenue.
