Balangay Shrine, Butuan City
In Butuan City, Agusan del Norte | The Filipino word Baranggay came from the word: Balangay or Balanghai which is watercraft used by the ancient people in the
Philippines for transportation and for barter and trade. If I am not mistaken,
it was discussed when I was in the fifth grade, in HEKASI. I am happy that
today, it’s time to see the actual relics of Balangay, discovered in Butuan. Since the guard did not allow me to
use my DSLR or even my digital camera, photos below were captured using my mobile
camera:
Getting Around Butuan City (Visited Museums)
Backpacking in Butuan City is
easy because all the historical sites are located just within the vicinity,
accessible using the local's public utility vehicles such as jeepney and tricycle. During
our visit in Butuan, at the intersection of the Narra Road (where Jollibee,
McDonalds and KFC are located), we chartered a tricycle to visit two
museums in the city. Below are two of the museums in Butuan City.
BACKPACKING in Surigao del Sur, Agusan del Norte, and Camiguin
Our original plan is to hike Mt. Dulang-dulang and Mt. Kitanglad, but because of the question:
“gusto nyo ba?” it was changed to backpacking in Northern Mindanao. It happened
for a very very short time. So from Malaybalay, Bukidnon, we rode on a bus with
Cagayan signboard and alighted at
Agora Terminal. At the terminal, we rode in a bus with Butuan signboard and
alighted at Butuan Terminal. Then, another bus ride to Mangahoy, Bislig,
Surigao del Sur. Here are some of the Mindanao’s finest, from days 1 to 5.
