Ati-Atihan 2013

Last January 19-20, 2013, I and my friends went to Kalibo, Aklan, Philippines to join the celebration of Ati-Atihan 2013. This celebration is the feast of sto. nino for the catholics. It is celebrated on the 2nd week of January together with other places in the country with the same celebration.  Ati-atihan is dubbed as the merriest sto. nino celebration in the whole country.

Kalibo, Aklan is approximately a two hour ride from Caticlan, a gateway to one of the world's famous beach, Boracay.

Please check these blogs about Atiatihan, they would tell you what the experience was all about :)
