municipality in the Aklan province of Philippines, Kalibo
is located in the north western section of the Panay
Island. If you want to visit Boracay, Kalibo will probably
fall in the way. Kalibo is rather an insipid town for
the major part of the year but dons a vibrant look every
second week of January when it hosts the Ati-Atihan,
the grandest street party in entire Philippines. World

you familiarize yourself with the town that will not
disappoint the tourists in terms of the attractions.
If you are lucky to be in Kalibo during the celebration
of the Ati- Atahan, you can't help being touched by
its exuberance that characterizes this festival that
celebrates the Atis, the original inhabitants of this
area and is wrapped up by the dance performances by
the locals.
Initiate you Kalibo tours with a visit to Museo it
Akean in the “School of the King” where the young Aklanons
were coerced to learn Spanish and English during the
Spanish and American era. Museo it Akean is intricately
linked to the glory and legacy of one of the oldest
civilization of Minuro it Akean.
The Kalibo Cathedral should ideally be your next stop
over on your Kalibo tours. The similarity is the architecture

it Akean are contemporary structures. Kalibo cathedral
is a holy bema where the faithful Aklanons invoke their
creator and pray for blessings and guidance.

to the nineteen valiant fighters for freedom who combated
the colonizers and sacrificed their lives at the altar
of their country's freedom. The monument also houses
