Stunning renaissance church. From closer look, you can see that adobe blocks are still intact. It is near Bacolod plaza and near SM Bacolod so it is easy to visit it. Also, almost all jeeps will pass by here. Inside it is so peaceful and vendors are not scattered on the entrance. Overall it was a great experience visiting this church. Best to visit this place at night when the lights are on and the whole structure is glowing.

Superb Church bldg structure; engineered and architecture design. #ArcHighCeiling #BrickwallstOne #AncientChurchBILL

Attended early morning mass when we were visiting Bacolod. It is near city center and there is some parking around the plaza across the street from the church. To get a parking space it is helpful to get there early.

An old Cathedral at the heart of the city of Bacolod. It can be a tourist attraction.

An interesting place to see in Bacolod,Wonder of Philippines!

(Translated by Google) A place worth seeing - modest interior, no glamor. In 1981, Pope John Paul II was here - there is a memorial plaque embedded in the floor at the altar. (Original) Miejsce warte zobaczenia - skromne wnętrze, bez przepychu. W 1981 był tu Papież Jan Paweł II - jest pamiątkowa tablica wmurowana w podłodze, przy ołtarzu.

AWESOME FAITH ___HISTOROCAL PLACE ONLY AT BACOLOD CITY NEGROS OCCIDENTAL !! PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭

Very historical church bec of its old structure and blessed to witness my friend's wedding sa church na ito.

Located at the heart of Bacolod City. In front of it is the plaza. There's a coffee shop at the back of it too. Be prepared to see some old aged people asking for alms, preferred to give food instead. So I gave them some breads I was able to buy on a local bakery.

Nice place to seek guidance and enlightenment from our beloved God. The place is quite perfect for solemn events like weddings, baptismals and other religious events. I did a lot of pictorials here since I am a photographer. Likewise an iconic and historic place for Bacolod City.

It's big, old, and in the city center. Main road just in front of the road but when you go inside you can't hear the noise. Seats and chairs are old but I love the environment. Cool and soothing. There are few beggers who seat in front of church but the most important I love the church.

One of the few witnesses of a culturally past of Bacolod. So beautiful cathedral. Go there especially outside the masses. You would be able to pray quietly and deeply God. And admire the architecture in its full splendor

Must visit church when you are in Bacolod. San Sebastian Cathedral is one of the most famous religious and historical landmark in the province of Bacolod. The church usually closes around 8 p.m. If you want to go inside to offer prayers or admire the solemn interiors, it is best to go during the day or at sundown.

Another holy place where I want to spend time for myself.

At last I was here with my friend Kristine. Such an honored to see 𝐒𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢á𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐝 148 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 19𝐭𝐡 𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐲.

A big and fond part of my childhood. Every Sunday when I was young my whole family will go to church and hang out at the plaza or lagoon. Schedule of mass every Sunday starts at 6 AM to 7, then consecutive every hour until 1PM. The mass for the afternoon will resume at 2:30 then consecutive every hour until 7:30 in the evening.

Solemn place for Holy Mass n prayers. Accessible to public transportation. center area of Bacolod city.

No other places than you feel the Spiritual Blessings since your Childhood day's.

I hear mass every Wednesday the whole year round.

I love the beauty of centuries-old churches 😍😍😍

Very sacred place, I would like to recommend it to every tourist that is planning to visit here in bacolod

peaceful place ...

Free to visit, but of course donations are welcomed. Nice to look around and enjoy the peace. Please be respectful and not make too much noise during your visit.

Grandiose Cathedral.

It's a very solemn place for contemplation, prayer and for worshipping. Good place to visit for your pilgrimage and a nice stop over on your visit to the city.

Very good place of worship. Had a very nice morning prayer with youth.

Divine!

Good place to worship God if you’re a Catholic. Problem is the lack of parking.

Definitely one of the churches in the Philippines with an amazing antique architectural and firm structures. You can easily visit it as it's in the heart of Bacolod. Gloria Excelsis Deo! 🙏

This cathedral has lovely exteriors but I feel the interiors especially the altar can be further enhanced so that the experience would be further elevated.

One of the beautiful churches in Negros Occidental. It is a 19th-century church in Bacolod.

A solemn place to reflect and pray. There is certain areas where you can light candles.

Before we began with our trip, visited San Sebastian Cathedral and offered a prayer.

The exterior has more character than the inside. Definitely worth checking out it, as a tourist. Be prepared for the persistent little children begging for money.

Hard to enjoy the beauty of this magnificent church when you get scoured with beggars constantly. After giving 1 girl a 20php piece, she then asked to give more because I am a foreigner… despicable people that use the house of god for their personal benefit… Also some highly intelligent family screeching into a karaoke machine right next to the church really adds to the charm

Brings u back to olden times the cathedral itself is history... The artistry of the ceiling walls d interior... D altar so solemn u can really feel God is living there... Plus the hymns of d choir d church bells z like nirvana.... I basically grew up in dat church where my school near is... So many fond loving memories.....

Beautiful old cathedral in Bacolod worth a visit in the centre of the city

Hope they could keep cleanliness everywhere and stop people from peeing everywhere... every corner of the plaza and near the cathedral is smelly.

Is my first time to visit here, The church is good

One of the must visit places when you go to Bacolod. It is right in front of the public park and walking distance from SM Bacolod.

Always awesome to be back home and see this majestic church.

A solemn place where you can pray. They have candle vendor on the right side of the cathedral. You can buy colorful candle with corresponding meaning.The city plaza is just in front of the Cathedral.You can have manicure, pedicure and massage there. Its convenient if you are waiting for someone and take a nap under the huge talisay tree.SM is walking distance or you can ride a jeep for 8.00 pesos.

Good place to worship God and our savior Jesus. Glorify God make Disciples!

Must visit here in Bacolod! Luckily there is an evening mass so we get to experience it. The choir is good too!

not that much to see inside but if you're very religious and devotes to the catholic faith, it's a good spot to pray

Peaceful and calming. They have English masses too!

A nice and beautiful church and a magnifent facade. ⛪👍

HIstorical Site. Wonderful architecture and really spacious. Lots of sampaguita vendors in front and some ambulant vendors that sells religious things.

It's a historical roman catholics church

It's the Birthplace of my Catholic Faith. 🙏😇🙏

Old but gold

It's nice to visit during sunday for mass.

Good to see this.

It's a religious artifact.

😊

Very good

right in the heart of bacolod downtown.

Holly and a beautiful place

Great place to clear the mind and to thank God for the iverflowing blessings.

Good coir, it could get busy but frequent masses on Sunday by the hour

Place of worship where one can commune with God.

one of the oldest churches.

My "inner peace" site

Relaxing place

very old church. but too crowded

Way to reflect spritually

A historical landmark that connects us to the era of Spaniards. Which our dialect entice to those days and we formulate our own dialect as time goes by. If we will use our Hiligaynon dialect to speak with the Spanish we can communicate with them.

The cathedral was a sacred part of our culture and it's historical importance cannot be denied but the cleanliness of its surrounding is poor. There are many cigarette butts and garbage around the area that one could easily see, tarnishing its beauty and majestic appeal... 😔

Mass every Sunday starts at 2:30 pm.

this is where i pray

This is were we go to attend Sunday Mass everytime I'm in Bacolod....
