I t was my first time to visit Davao City Philippines. This city in southern Philippines is known to be the largest in terms of land area. Davao City is so vast that the term large is actually an understatement.
Here’s a slideshow featuring the scenes from the Indak Indal sa Kadalanan contest during the recently concluded Kadayawan sa Davao Festival 2008.
The Tampakan High School from the Municipality of Tampakan South Cotabato emerged as the Grand Champion in the Kadayawan Streetdance Contest. Runner-up is Magallanes Elementary School of Davao City.
The Kadayawan Festival is awesome. Truly, a feast for the eyes. Thirty contingents from various schools in Davao, together with the ten ethnic tribes of Davao and from festivals of other parts of Mindanao all competed during the Saturday’s Indak Indak sa Kaddalanan.
Madayaw Dabaw! It’s my first time this year to explore a Mindanao City. By the time you read this post, I have already landed in the land of durian and waling-waling.
Davao city is celebrating its annual Kadayawan Festival 2008. It is going to be my first time in Davao City and I am very excited.
I just can’t wait to see hundreds of dancers in their most colourful costumes perform at the Indak Indak sa Kadalanan tomorrow. The ten ethnic tribes of Davao will be showcasing the beauty of their tribes, the Davao city contingents will be performing their thanksgiving performances and some Mindanao festivals will be showcasing the pride of their cities and provinces.
I will also be meeting several Davao members of the Skyscrapercity forum and davao-based bloggers.
