It is a “Petite France” in Cebu where anybody can enter without a visa and mingle with the French culture. It is the first French Cultural Institute and Language Center officially inaugurated in Cebu on November 29, 2007, by the French Ambassador, Gerard Chesnel. “Les Amis de la France” is a Filipino association of “Francophile” women and men from various nationalities. Located in the very heart of the Visayan Capital, a stone’s throw from the Ayala Center, Les Amis de la France is a genuine international meeting place. People from highly diverse backgrounds, with highly diverse sets of interests (cultural, professional etc.) come together from all over the globe. The language center is open to everyone willing to learn or polish its French language. Exhibits and events organised in the cultural center will interest those who want to know more about this far away country, avant-garde of a long and traditional culture which makes its international reputation.
