Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines

I was born and raised here in the City of Golden Friendship and this blog will feature the places I've visited, activities done and food taken.  Solely featuring my hometown where I would not want any place to be. (This will be with continuous update).

Cagayan de Oro (Cebuano: Dakbayan sa Cagayan de Oro; Filipino: Lungsod ng Cagayan de Oro) is a first class highly urbanized and capital city of the province of Misamis Oriental in Mindanao, southern part of the Philippines. It serves as the regional center and business hub of Northern Mindanao (Region X), and part of the growing Metropolitan Cagayan de Oro area, which includes the city of El Salvador.

The City of Cagayan de Oro is located along the central coast of northern Mindanao island facing Macajalar Bay and is bordered by the municipalities of Opol to the west; Tagoloan to the east, and provinces of Bukidnon and Lanao del Norte to the south of the city. According to the 2010 Census of Population, the city has a population of 602,088,^[5] making it the 10th most populous city in the Philippines.

Cagayan de Oro is famous for its whitewater rafting or kayakingadventures, one of the tourism activities being promoted along the Cagayan de Oro River.^{[6][7][8] (wikipedia)}
