I got the impression this was meant for groups or school children. We saw a few cocoons and a few butterflies,but it was the brother of the original owner who made our visit so worthwhile. We where made to feel so welcome and he showed us around everywhere with a really great commentary and his knowledge was fantastic.

My wife and kids found out about this place and we knew we had to go and check it out. We are from Chicago and love going to nature museums and gardens. It was a little tricky finding it. Not all taxi drivers know about the place. You can tell them that it is near the holy cross parish behind... More

We took a taxi to Jumalon's Butterfly Sanctuary and were given a tour of the garden and small art gallery by the late Professor Jumalon's ifriendly and nformative son.

Indeed, the place, especially the gallery, was so wonderful and amazing because it showcased the unique artistry of the late Prof. Jumalon. Butterflies are abound in the place depending on season (they prefer not to place the butterflies in an enclosure). Butterflies just come and go freely.... More

It's just a small space but filled with talent. Mr. Jumalon bred butterflies and used butterfly wings to create visual art. He also paints. He paints one scene with one color and then copies the same scene using butterfly wings...using the color mix of the different butterfly wings. You'll just have to check them out.

We had a couple of hours to kill in Cebu city and having seen all the "main" attractions decided to head over to see what this little place had to offer. The driver had never heard of the museum itself but knew of Macopa St and from there it was easy.....the street that the museum itself is on has been... More
