Wake up your inner senorita with Kawit's illumination

Still don't have ideas where to spend your Christmas?

How about visit something near Metro Manila by visiting Kawit, Cavite through a spectacular display of lights at the Aguinaldo Shrine and Freedom Park. This is where the Aguinaldo Shrine is situated wherein the Philippine flag that we know of today was first waved publicly announcing our Independence by none other than the first Filipino President Emilio Aguinaldo. 

There’s also a lot to learn about our first president and how he has lived his life and times during the revolution era. Beyond the Shrine also are  other sights to see including the “Museo ni Baldomero 

Aguinaldo” hailed towards the cousin of Emilio Aguinaldo and grandfather of Cesar Virata who as a prime minister in the 1980s. 

Kawit boasts rich crafts and delicacies including the Pandayan or the local blacksmithing shop. Blacksmithing is an endangered craft that needs to be promoted and preserved. The local Pandayan is still active and you can still buy handcrafted knives and bolos made the same way during the Revolutionary era. The Christmas specialty – Puto Bumbong or a rice cake with shaved coconut and muscovado sugar is a staple food trip stop that shouldn’t be missed when visiting Kawit. 

The Municipality of Kawit welcomes everyone who wishes to visit Kawit during the Christmas 

season. So make sure to visit this Festive time.
