If you’re moving to Iloilo City, you’ll have to prepare yourself for an exciting and vibrant experience. With its rich cultural heritage and warm hospitality, the city offers a blend of history, modernity, and natural beauty. Embrace the local culture, try the regional cuisine, and engage with the vibrant festivals (Dinagyang-derived from the Ilonggo word “dagyang,” which means “merrymaking” or “celebration” to the commemoration of the arrival of the Malay settlers and the Santo Niño (Child Jesus) in Panay Island). Prepare for the tropical climate and research essential services, healthcare facilities, and educational institutions.

Anyone moving here should know in this place, people’s lovely smiles prevail. It is the city of smiles for that reason. Also, religion, arts, and culture here are always deemed relevant knowing that our churches and impeccably-curated artifacts are given top-notched attention by the local government.

Coming to the city would be a memorable and one-of-a-kind experience. It is the “City of Love” where people get easily attracted to the locals’ hospitality, tourism, culture, faith, practices, and values – those that are especially known as “malambing” or loving, passionate, and caring in English context. Tourists’ most recommend returning as frequent as possible.
