Last week, taking advantage of the long vacation, we decided to visit our grandmother in our hometown Tabuk, in the province of Kalinga. I also took the opportunity of improving my driving skills and drive for 12 hours, conquering the Dalton pass and the north expressway in the process. It was a scary but a wonderful learning experience.
There was not much to do in Tabuk so we just drove around and took some pictures of the old and common spots you see in the place. I thought it would be nice to make a video presentation out of these photos for the benefit of those who want to reminisce or go back the memory lane. It will also be a showcase of what Tabuk is all about for those who have never been there or wanting to go there.
Tabuk came from the word "Tobog", a living stream that runs from the upper part of the municipality that flows down to the lower part of the town which waters the wide fields of the residents of the place. Its land area accounts to 741.70 hectares with a total population of 76,788 as of 2005 NSO census.
It has 42 barangays with only 8 urban barangays. The main source of living is farming due mainly to its wide tract of lands for agricultural production specially on palay. In fact, Tabuk is dubbed as the rice granary or the bread basket of the Cordillera.It has been also a consistent hybrid producer for the past two years. (from http://www.tabuk.gov.ph/)
