About 28 KM south of Cebu City, is the town of San Fernando<\/strong>. It is a 2nd class municipality and established in 1858. The main products in San Fernando are poultry and cement products. A little history on the town – it was once called San Isidro Labrador. The town was also one of the barangays of the town of Naga. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The town was then given the name San Fernando as a way to honor one of their best-loved parish priests – Fernando Sanchez. Under the leadership of Juan Diyong, the town was established after it merged with other barangays in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And while many of the festivals in the Philippines were started decades or centuries ago, there are also those festivals that were only founded recently. One of which is the Sikoy-Sikoy Festival in San Fernando — which gives the locals and visitors something to look forward to each year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
