Cover story: Zambo City’s...from 3
Various festivals are being held in different parts of the country as part of its tourism. Advertisements showing the beauty and splendor of the Philippines engross all broadcast and print media with one ultimate purpose… to show to the world that Philippines is such a precious gift from God and should
be enjoyed by the people. We here, in the beautiful city of Zamboanga Hermosa, are celebrating the biggest and perhaps the longest festival in the city. The longest because for us here, this starts the merry and joyful atmosphere towards Christmas season, the biggest because
it is a fiesta worthy of attention as those of Kadayawan, Sinulog, Maskara festivals and the likes. A fiesta which has rooted from the faith of the Zamboangueños to the Holy Virgin… the celebration of the Fiesta de la Nuestra Señora La Virgen del Pilar which is celebrated every 12th of October. 5
