Magellan's Cross is a large Christian cross planted by Portuguese and Spanish explorers as ordered by Ferdinand Magellan upon arriving in Cebu in the Philippines in 1521. This cross is now housed in a kiosk just right in front of Colegio del Santo Niño and City Hall. It is also a tourist attraction in Cebu.
