Negros Island is one of the largest Province in the Philippines which has two regions the Occidental and Oriental. Where people living in Negros are called negrosanon's that can speak Tagalog, native dialects like Hiligaynon, Bisaya, Ilonggo, Cebuano, Karay-a and even the universal English language. Aside from that facts Negros is very rich in Natural resources from it's amazing environment. Plus our massive sugarcane field produced billions of tons of sugar every year to supply the needs of every Filipino people.

To explore the entire Negros you need enough time to discover the hidden beauty behind giant mountains or crossing the deep blue waters that surrounded the island. Which is accessible by plane, ferry or boat.
For me the best thing about Negros are the people that give character to our island to be considered as one of the must see places in the Philippines.
Promise there are tons of activities that can feed your travel fantasies in Negros from the majestic waterfalls, crystal clear beach waters, virgin forests, mountain cliffs, thousands of caves, century old historical landmarks, Spanish influence churches, variety of delicious food, sand bars, marine sanctuaries, highland resorts, colorful festivals and many more.

These are just examples what to expect in our province that will boosts your excitement and decide to book a flight going to the Negros Island.

Lastly to consider Negros as full package for travelers, tourist, local visitors and back packers. Must see these originally hand made products from different places in Negros. Every cities, municipalities, towns, constituent barangay's including some rural areas have their own signature products that contributed pride to our province.

The Bamboo Products of Bayawan City

Bayawan is a place in Negros known to its high quality and effective process of preserving bamboos free from infestations. Though most of the places in Negros have their own supplies for manufacturing products from it. Bayawan have certain organizations collaborating to some experts and engineers to bring their bamboo's into different levels of craftsmanship

The Religious Figures of San Carlos City

San Carlos City is known to it's fine and distinct design in terms of creating religious figurines from normal to human size structures. They created these detailed sculptures using plaster of Paris and some are made of porcelain. The delicate process of molding these figures needed a precise hand skills and detail oriented when it comes to execution of designs. If you are one of the person posses these characteristics and can create awesome art like what San Carlos people did. You are one in a million people in this world that deserves to be applauded in front of billion crowd.

People of Negros are wise enough to use properly it's resources before creating these awesome products. Because they set limitations to scale the value per usage and same time to control the waste disposal. As long as they can manage to use every piece of portions from that source. Negrosanon's refrain from disposing anything that can be use for other purpose to avoid abuse. Actually there are certain cities in Negros that are implementing strict to no plastic policy like in San Carlos. People are only allow to use eco bag, basket, or paper bags. None of the establishment provide plastic for you groceries, because you have to bring your own tote bags or eco friendly containers.

Negros is not open to all tourist most especially to marine protected areas, island exclusive for volunteers, forest parks not open for public visiting and restricted jungles to protect the wild animals from harm or anything that can disturb their habitat. But it's not an issue if you are looking for best spots for your photo desires. You can hop to tons of choices that can truly satisfy your travel fantasies. As a pro individual that supports organizations to preserved places not only in Negros. I must say it is one of the fulfilling job to protect your nature for future generations and I am proud to live here in Negros.
