(Henna) Tattoo is a must. The wilder the better.  I learned from one tattoo artist that he earned more than PhP 5,000.00 during the Kasadyahan day alone.  Cost of one henna tattoo is as cheap as PhP50.00.

Accessories at very affordable prices.

All establishments are closed and the streets are filled with makeshift bar and food place. Our table is located just below this school of music signage.100_9979

Dress wild, act tamed and have crazy fun is the rule of the day.  "Ilonggos" are such peace loving people. Didn't spot any trouble the whole night in spite that almost everyone is holding a bottle of beer.

A bunch of party people enjoying the festive mood!

Party people dressed in tribal attire are everywhere.   You can have your souvenir pics with them.  Just drop some change as token for their effort.
