Virtual Tour 4K | Pintados Festival 2023 Ritual Dance Presentation | Tacloban City | Julanders

The Pintados Festival is a cultural-religious celebration in Tacloban based on the body-painting traditions of the ancient tattooed "pintados" warriors. In 1986, the Pintados Foundation, Inc. was formed by the people of Tacloban to organize this festival in honor of Sr. Santo Niño.
The Pintados festival of Tacloban City is a Filipino festival with its own unique flavor. This Pintados festival recalls Pre-Spanish history of the native Leytenos from wars, epics and folk religions. The most expected aspect of the Pintados festival are the festive dancers, painted from head to toe with designs that look like armor to resemble the tattooed warriors of old. During the course of the Pintados festival, dancers whose bodies are painted in an amazing array of colors fill the streets of Tacloban city. At first sight, they may seem outrageous as grown men pour into the streets decorated in such dazzling colors as luminous blue or neon green. But as one gets used to this and sees the dances depicted, one gets a glimpse of the history of the people that once lived on the islands of Leyte so long ago
This is one of the highlights of the month long festival in Tacloban. This is a must see and experience because not only is it a parade of one culture, but it is a parade where other municipalities come to showcase their own cultures. And after the parade, a dance competition will be held where the municipalities battle it out of who got the most beautiful, graceful and stunning dances which incorporate and tells the story of their home town. You will not only be amazed by it but it will also capture your heart and mind about the story that they are showcasing. allabouttacloban.wordpress.co...
