TOURING THE CITY OF LOVE IN THE PHILIPPINES (Ilonggo, Visayas)

The City Of Love...
Yes, that is what they call Iloilo City in Western Visayas. After taking a boat from Cagayan de Oro we found ourselves spending a day exploring. In this video you will see a little bit of local coffee, food and good vibes...
Oh and a beautiful river walk!
It is easy to see why people LOVE this place :)

Diifferent Bisaya dialects These Dialects of the Bisaya people are: Hiligaynon, Aklanon, Cebuano, Capiznon, Kinaray-a, Bantoanon, Romblomanon, Waray, Surigaonon, Cuyonon, etc The Bisaya Island of Panay = Dialects of the Bisaya People in Panay are: Hiligaynon (Iloilo and Roxas), Karay-a, (Iloilo and Antique) Aklanon (Aklan), and Capiznon (Capiz). HOW THE BISAYA PEOPLE CAME TO MINDANAO In 1940s heavy migration to Mindanao of the Bisaya people spurred by government-sponsored resettlement programmes. Because of migration over time, a large part of Mindanao is now largely populated by Bisaya people from Iloilo, Antique, Cebu, Dumaguete, Samar, Leyte, and Bohol. Read Full pagadian.org/bisaya.htm

Your passion to promote The whole Philippines, without expecting anything in return is so admirable. You're truly inspirational. Will be following your voyage all the way! 🇵🇭👍☺️💜 ps... It's been a long wait! 😂

[@vigilanthoodlum8991]

Wow! ican't beleived IloILo city has a potencial to become a develop and great city someday.

[@archbaligalachannel4765]

Actually it was once a developed city due to sugar boom industry, it was called the queen city of the south, the first city of the phils to have, department store, electricity, buses, telephone lines etc.... But its status as 2ndtier city got faded in favor of cebu....

[@AllAboutFilipinaRelationships]

I would love to get to Iloilo City one day, looks very interesting and the people always seem very friendly :)

[@picklingphotos2587]

Australian & Philippine Adventures Travel Oh yes we are. Though i live in Nz.

[@rolindalanger913]

You must visit Iloilo city,its very clean,the people are very friendly and helpful as well.We had been in Iloilo 4x na.I am from Dumaguete but living in Munich Germany for almost 30yrs.my husband likes to travel to this beautiful city. We are always staying in Ceda hotel.The staff are very friendly service etc.

[@AngryKittens]

Even among Filipinos, the Ilonggo people (the natives of the region Iloilo is in) have the reputation for being sweet and affectionate. Partly because their language sounds very melodic to other Filipino ethnic groups. Think of it as similar to how English-speakers think of the French.

[@colab_stdio]

Oh they sure are! It's a combination of a big city vibe and you can find laid back locations all over this Province/City. Seek the food, culture and nature tripping. In any particular order, all of them will do. 😁

[@maryannmoscoso6306]

Yes I'm from Iloilo city from molo is nice place but been away there for 18 years working in Singapore I miss my home town but I go holiday every 2 years

[@mistykaren_]

My mom's side of the family is originally from Iloilo, and Boting grew up there until his family moved here in CDO when he was 8. We both want to go there soon!

[@picklingphotos2587]

Misty Karen Lots of people from Mindanao originally came from Iloilo.

[@estebanlipa6320]

[@firstchirriru]

[@BecomingFilipino]

Finally have some time to upload :)

[@elmayee6719]

Esplanade is very famous to students....Enjoy Kyle and Kumar.

[@andiii.corporal]

Now that I've seen so much eating in just one video kulas, it made me realize of how long you've stayed in the Philippines, long enough to develop your own palette for our food and flavors. Nice video again! 👌👌👌

[@pilipinay3186]

Hello again KYLE....you're back and also KUMAR. 🙏👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️ Bugtaw na ILOILO... Beautiful ILOILO..... Salamat kaayo sa pag share nimo ani nga nindot nga video. Amping mo kanunay. God bless.🙏👍❤️

[@colab_stdio]

Kulas, salamat sa pag labay sa matahum nga syudad sang Iloilo! (Thank you for passing by the beautiful city of Iloilo). I get Goosebumps that you are actually here. You ate batchoy last time in Cagayan, too bad you didn't seek out Batchoy while in Lapaz. That's where it all started, ground zero if that's apt! 😁 You should have seeked out Deco's or Ted's I'm pretty sure the got one at the mall on the other side of the market. If you are headed north, which I'm guessing you are before jumping over to Luzon there's another city up north from Iloilo. If this post is not that late, try ka mag pangita (seek) kag mag kaon (eat) seafood didto (there). I'm pretty sure they got some of the best you can find anywhere in this country. Mudcrabs, mussels, prawns, a bit pricy yeah but worth the try! Not to mention it makes me a wee bit hungry writing about it! 😉😉 Waiting for your next upload, good luck and 👍👍⬆ 😀

[@iamnelly5966]

Sarap ng mga pagkain diyan kulas,ingat po lage kayo ni kumar!

[@ironlady1171]

Manamit gid ya kung sa provinsya mga pagkaon,. Enjoy it Kyle as I love to watch your videos,. On my holiday coming to Philippines for my vedios.

[@maayongaga729]

Great blog in our hometown Kulas. My life surround around that fountain before. It made me dizzy. South is the shopping center, East is St. Paul hospital where I worked, center where I took my review classes, North where I went to school, West where I did volunteer worked in the fields. So many memories...

[@marichelluna4406]

Love the food always in phillipines. Hoping to go back soon from Ontario. I have enjoyed all your images from the phillipines

[@jparreno]

Yay! This is where I'm from! I'm excited to go back later this year and visit Iloilo after 2 years...

[@BecomingFilipino]

[@janedudynsky5067]

Loved siopao, less the ketchup. A big thumbs-up friend! 😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@kazzam5000]

Kulas, you looked so much happier in this iloilo trip.. you should frequently visit this place.. so much good vibes..

[@leoayawon200]

Whenever im loaded with problems, i just view your video and i fell good, keep making happy vloggs,

[@liquidfire30]

Finally! Been waiting for this! One thing though - I almost had a heart attack when you put ketchup on that queen siopao! 😂 I am a big fan but I was like, "Hell, no!"

[@widescreen1272]

liquidfire30 well i think you are one of the few who dont eat siopao with a ketchup in it.

[@liquidfire30]

Call me Sarge I would be respectful of how other people eat their siopao but what he was eating was a Roberto's siopao, and a Queen siopao at that. Maybe I am wrong, but that was the first time ever that I have seen someone put ketchup on their siopao at Roberto's. That siopao is perfect as it is, ketchup would ruin it.

[@TitoTimTravels]

I rarely see anyone eat a siopao without putting ketchup on it. (even the Queen siopao) 😀

[@sweetoneg.c.nonescan8087]

Meron talagang sauce nilalagay siopao ng roberto's. Simula nung maliliit kmi bumibili ang nanay dyan, that's my favorite...

[@IlonggoDad]

ang pagbabalik ni Kulas!!!! Welcome back sa Iloilo!

[@elizabethfuhr5527]

You eat so well in the Philippines, lots of good food there. Im envious. Especially the suman and bukayo.

[@ianross8549]

[@pattykochenower4222]

Another great vlog! Can you maybe explain more what you are eating when you eat ? Say name slower, ingredients, history/popularity... even the coffee, he made it so different... explain a little more to us that have never gone and hope to one day.. thanks Kyle. You’re the best! And also the reasoning behind your headband, I know it means something , but can’t remember... what’s the significance and meaning of it to you and the importance of wearing it everyday, I remember back in an old vlog it was told, but can’t find it. Thanks Kyle, I just love to learn things about you, your travels are so amazing , they make my day! 👍😊

[@fiveangel78]

I love that you're so carefree!

[@pinay-americanlife1443]

oh my that's one of my favorite food that i miss already. kadios with langka.

[@canucme3067]

People of panay island are generally friendly! After iloilo, if you are planning on stopping by the province of Aklan, try to visit jawili beach and falls and Liktinon white rocks of Madalag, Aklan... going to jawili beach, you will pass by a winding road along the side of a mountain, littered with pine trees, overlooking jawili beach (great for instagram moments)... DENRs Forestry is also near by... its also a very nice place with a small beach cove.... along that same road is a fork that will lead up the mountain. Ive never been up there but they say that the place is nice and it was owned by Smart and they built their tower there...im not sure tho coz ive never been there. Lots of nice places to explore just ask the locals... then you can visit boracay and you can do a little documentary about whats going on with its rehabilitation... just a suggestion hehe!.... again love watching your vids!

[@ofwfarmer3832]

Thanks kulas... Stress gone

[@mannygreywolfsdb9936]
