Why these tags

Festivals

From the sources

“The Kahimunan Festival is celebrated every third Sunday of January in celebration of the city patron Sr. Santo Niño.”

“Butuan celebrates its annual fiesta, the Balangay Festival, for the celebration of the city patron Saint Joseph every whole month of May, with the exact feast day of St. Joseph on May 19.”

Food

From the sources

“The term "nilubid" is coined from a local delicacy, twisted hard fried flour, which is famous among people of the city and neighboring towns and provinces.”

Sentences are from this town's Wikipedia and Wikivoyage articles, found by code because they mention the vibe; they are not necessarily the ones the model relied on.
