Why these tags
Heritage
From the sources
“San Miguel Arcangel Parish Church is one of the oldest churches in southern Cebu.”
Festivals
From the sources
“The La Torta Festival, which replaced the Pitlagong Festival in 2011, is the municipality's local food festival in honor of St Michael the Archangel, the patron saint of Argao.”
“La Torta Festival happens every 28–29 September to celebrate Argao's Tart Economy and the torta as an Argaoanon delicacy, as well as cultural heritage from the Spanish period, which includes the tradition of making the torta.”
Food
From the sources
“Argao is renowned in Cebu as the "Torta Capital of the Province" because of its local delicacy, the Torta, a Cebuano tart that is inspired from the Spanish tart, but differs in its recipe by using tubâ or palm wine as the rising agent instead of the usual yeast.”
Waterfalls
From the sources
“Linut-od Falls is among the tallest waterfalls in Cebu.”
