One of the most popular tourist attractions in the city of Cebu is the Jumalon Butterfly Sanctuary.

Muslims visiting the Jumalon Butterfly Sanctuary will not be able to find prayer facilities at the attraction but they will be able to find a couple of mosques in Cebu City. They could use the facilities offered at Al-Khairiah Mosque or at the Green Mosque. Visitors can therefore ask to be directed to the closest prayer facility when needed.
It is unclear if visitors will be able to find any food stalls at the Jumalon Butterfly Sanctuary. While Muslims will find it quite difficult to locate Halal restaurants in Cebu City, there are sure to be a few as there is a sizeable Muslim population in the city. Muslim tourists must therefore be careful with where they dine and what they order.
