LUBUAGAN


 Lubuagan, Kalinga... there is something really magical about this once capital in the mountains of the Philippines. 


Once capital? What do I mean by that?


Well, this place has a unique history to it! The Spanish were never able to rule this part of the Philippines. Back on March 6th, 1900, Emilio Aguinaldo actually declared Lubuagan the "seat of government" of the First Philippine Republic. For 73 days, this place acted as “the capital” of the country! Really fascinating history. 

Lubuagan was once the capital of Kalinga sub-province before Tabuk rose to its present status as the center of learning and government activities.
