Every 14th and 15th of May, people from Pulilan, Bulacan parade their work animals, mostly carabaos, are made to parade in honor of their patron saint, San Isidro Labrador- the patron saint of farmers. Carabaos are dressed up with paint, garlands, accessories, etc. paraded, then made to kneel in front of their parish (church). This is a way of thanking the saint for a bountiful harvest. Visit Pulilan and experience this yourself! (more…)
