about cultural diversity in Philippines and the first
name that pops to mind is Davao. Davao is a curious
mix of the ethnic Bagobo, Mandaya, Manobo, Tiboli, Mansaka
and B'laan tribal culture and it goes without saying
that Davao has many things to offer even to a casual
traveler in terms of its tourist attractions. World
Travel 4 Indians takes you on Davao tours and gives
you first hand info on tourist attractions in Davao.
Initiate your Davao tours ideally with the Davao
Museum that helps you understand the soul
of the Davao people and their culture with the help
of the exhibits like tribal costumes, ornaments, handcrafted
items, paintings and sculptures. You can also pick up
some keepsakes from the souvenir shop that sells native
crafts.
Visit the T'boli Weaving Center where
the women belonging to South Cotabato use the fibers
of the native abaca plant to weave cloth. Watch how
the root and mud dyes are used to impart color to the
fabric that is later woven into intricate patterns and
figures manifesting the weaving skills.
Head towards the Muslim fishing village
that comprise of fragile huts perched on stilts over
the water. During high tide one gets the impression
that the entire village is adrift.
The inquisitive kids who never tire of their quest
for knowledge have a great variety of things to learn
at the Children's Museum of Davao City .
Here the kids get to know about the nitty gritties of
the modern technology that have fathered electric trains,
space shuttles, rockets and roller coasters.
Davao tours are incomplete without a visit to the Ford
Academy of Arts which apart from being a learning
center of art and culture, it also showcases the skills
of the local artisans in the form of paintings and sculptures.
World Travel 4 Indians is an international travel site
and a repository of useful information on Davao Tours
and the tours of other exotic countries around the world.
