Around Town
Tricycles, popularly known as “pedicabs, ” is the main transportation mode around town. Fare starts at P8.00, with discounts given to senior citizens, PWDs and students. For out-of-the way destinations, it’s best to arrange with the driver before you start your trip. If negotiations wear you down, Tourism Amlan (TA) office staff can assist you.
Fiestas and Special Events
In his book, “Culture and Community in the Philippine Fiesta and Other Celebrations,” Florentino H. Hornedo sees the Philippine fiesta as a “cultural anchor,” helping the Filipinos define their national character. “It is to this small community, that is annually recreated by the fiesta, that he goes home to renew his identity and sense of belonging—belonging to a home and familial village.” (http://ncca.gov.ph/about-culture-and-arts/in-focus/the-philippine-fiesta/)
