About

A special visit to the house of Lang Dulay in Lake Sebu was epic. She's a former National Living Treasure Awardee for the T'nalak Weaving which whose designs were based on her dream, so she was called the "Dreamweaver." By the way, T'nalak is a traditional hand-woven fabric made from refined abaca fiber. This type of fabric got attention worldwide because it is done through a manual process, but the finished product has amazing and unique patterns. The picture above is Sebulan Dulay, the successor, with portraits of Lang Dulay.

The T'boli Museum is a traditional house-turned-museum in Lake Sebu, South Cotabato that showcases the history, culture, and traditions of the T'boli people — one of Mindanao's most vibrant indigenous groups. The structure itself is an authentic Gono Bong (traditional T'boli house) made of bamboo and cogon, preserving centuries-old architecture and identity.

About Lotus Farm

The Lotus Farm (aka Lotus Garden) in Lake Sebu is a breathtaking spot where thousands of pink lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) bloom on the lake’s calm waters at dawn. Paddling a traditional T’boli **owong** canoe while wearing authentic T’boli attire connects you to both nature and Indigenous culture.
