Most of the festivals and fiestas are religious in nature, brought by the Spaniards in the 1500s. There are groups of people in the Philippines who celebrate birth and death. Regardless of its reasons, as long as it binds people, it needs to be preserved. The stunning colors and artistic costumes are just beautiful to the eye.
