Minor Basilica and Metropolitan Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception - The Manila Cathedral is 72% Kids-Friendly
Children are welcome and can play "spot the saint," but they must stay quiet during mass, there are no play areas, and parents must supervise closely; still a short educational stop fits a city tour.
Recommended visit duration: 1-2 hours
