👑 BEFORE THERE WAS A LEGEND, THERE WAS A WOMAN

She is remembered in stories.
She lives on in memory.
She reminds us that strength, grace, and devotion can shape generations.

Through the portrayal of Ms. Andrea Cuesta Parsons, we revisit the story of Maria Uray—not as a distant figure from history, but as an inspiration for every Dapitanon.

Soon, discover Dapitan through her eyes.

A journey from reef to ridge.
From dusk till dawn.

⛰️ ABOVE THE CITY, HISTORY STILL WATCHES

High above the coast stands a place where stories linger.

A hill that has witnessed centuries.
A lookout where land, sea, and sky meet.
A place where every step leads deeper into the story of Dapitan.

Majestic views.
Timeless history.
Endless wonder.

Soon, we climb higher.

✨ DISCOVER THE STORY OF A SMART & SUSTAINABLE HERITAGE CITY ✨

Step inside the Dapitan City Booth at the Saulog 2026 Booth Exhibits and experience a vibrant celebration of the stories, culture, and heritage that continue to shape our beloved Shrine City of the Philippines.

Guided by the Bag-ong Dapitan vision of Mayor Evelyn “Belen” T. Uy, this year's exhibit presents an elevated retelling of the narratives that define Dapitan—stories of Dr. Jose Rizal, Maria Uray, Datu Pagbuaya, and the many remarkable individuals and communities whose legacy lives on in every corner of our city.

More than an exhibit, the booth reflects Dapitan's commitment to innovation and sustainability. Designed as a modular and reusable structure, it can be easily mounted, dismounted, and repurposed for future exhibitions and tourism promotions, demonstrating how heritage and responsible development can go hand in hand.

Its vibrant colors mirror the spirit of Dapitan itself—a city rich in history, alive with culture, and filled with opportunities waiting to be discovered. Every panel, every design element, and every story invites visitors to see Dapitan not only as a destination, but as a living heritage community embracing the future.

From ridge to reef, from history to innovation, from tradition to transformation—this is the Dapitan that awaits your discovery.

🌅 REEF TO RIDGE. DUSK TILL DAWN.

ABANGAN.

Some stories are not told in books.

They are written by waves that kiss the shore, whispered by the winds that sweep across the hills, and painted by sunsets that turn the sky into a canvas of wonder.

Soon, we journey into a Dapitan seen through the eyes of a woman whose story became part of our own.

A story of beauty. A story of courage. A story of Dapitan.
