Marikina celebrated its 11th Cityhood Anniversary with one of its unique festivals dubbed as Rehiyon-Rehiyon .
The colorful celebration of the festival was a tribute to residents who were not taal na taga-Marikina (natives) but chose the city as their second home. This was the reason why the festivity’s theme was:
-
Iba’t-ibang Rehiyon, Iba’t-ibang Ugali, Pinagbubuklod sa Lungsod ng Marikina. (Different Regions, Different Attitudes and Cultures, Being United in the City of Marikina)
Interestingly, since Marikeños came from all over the Philippines, during the Rehiyon-Rehiyon, schools and barangays in the city prepare cultural presentations of every region in the country including the NCR. Imagine, you’ll get to see in one seating all the rich and vivid traditions of our heritage!
If you missed this year’s Rehiyon-Rehiyon, be sure to watch it next year!
