Cebu City is the Philippines' second-largest city and the economic hub of the Visayas region, home to approximately 950,000 city residents and 2.9 million in Metro Cebu. Like all Philippine cities, it operates on Philippine Standard Time (PST, UTC+8). Cebu is the oldest city in the Philippines — it was the site where Ferdinand Magellan arrived in 1521 (and was killed by local chief Lapu-Lapu in the Battle of Mactan), and where Miguel López de Legazpi founded the first Spanish settlement in the Philippines in 1565. The Magellan's Cross, planted by the Spanish conquistadors, still stands in a chapel near the basilica. The Santo Niño de Cebu (Holy Child Jesus), brought by Magellan as a gift in 1521, is the oldest Christian relic in the Philippines and the centrepiece of the Sinulog Festival — one of the Philippines' grandest celebrations. Cebu is also a major IT-BPO hub, a dive destination (Malapascua, Moalboal), and home to the world's largest school for the Visayan language group.
