I visited Temple of Leah last June 2016.
Pretty disappointed at that time as it was a hot afternoon with so many tourists in the place.
I then decided to give it another chance when I visited it this February 2017.
As part of the Cebu City Tour package we got, our first destination very early in the morning was Temple of Leah.
Located going up on the hills of Busay, it was a fun motorbike ride with our drivers.
The weather was refreshing as we left the city and elevated up on the hills.
For travelers on a budget and wants adventure, bike tour is highly recommended.

Here is the story of the Temple of Leah.
Took this image from the temple.
To make sure my facts are correct. :)
The photos you will see are both from my 2016 and 2017 visit.
You will see the difference.
2016 - Crowded
2017 - We had the place to ourselves.
TIP: Start the tour as early as 6am on weekdays. We went on a Monday.
2016 visit: It was soooo traffic. Good thing we had the motorbike and it was easier.

It is an on-going construction. This is what's inside the temple. I took this photo from the window.
I had the same pose from both years.

Thank you Cito, our driver/guide/photographer.
2016 visit: Owner of the car must be connected to the owner or maybe one of the family members/relatives as it was parked near the steps.
Or...it was used for a photoshoot.
2016 visit: Sadly, there are still many undisciplined and uneducated tourists.
2017 visit: No people.
Happy tourist here.
