ππ Manggahan Core Memories ππ
Great day, everyone!!
As I was relaxing on my hammock under the tree, I scrolled through my gallery. π
I love taking pictures, but I don't post them on social media; I just keep them π€ or post here on HIVE. I feel more open here. I'm confident no one will criticize my photos π
Anyway, here are a few photos I took of the Manggahan Festival a few years ago. I noticed a few improvements from this year's celebration.
Let's start with the "GUIMARAS" sign.
As you can see from the photos, the concrete sign was painted plain white. They put some LED strips (not sure if that's the right term) to make the letters more visible at night. There's the iconic mango before the word, but there's no light.
Now, the sign is colorful. Each letter has different colors, such as yellow, green, blue, red, etc.
Here's the Mango lantern near the registration area. It's about 5 feet tall, and so bright that you can see it from afar.
During this year's Manggahan festival, they recreated this lantern and made it even bigger.
Here are a few more attractions during the Manggahan Festival. There's a photo arch made from wood and amakan or woven bamboo mats. There's another arch on the other side of the area, which serves as the entrance to the trade fair and culinary events. Smaller mango lanterns were hanging.

On every opening day of the festival, the Province invites some famous artists to perform. This always makes the first day more memorable and fun for everyone.

Every year, I am always looking forward to seeing more improvements. And I think the province has never disappointed me. Thinking about it today, I am so excited for next year's celebration surprises. π₯°
