Cadiz Pavilion is this year’s sole recipient of the People’s Choice Awards when it has drawn more visitors, including local and international tourists, during the 16th Panaad Sa Negros Festival 2009 last April 18-25 at the Panaad Park and Stadium in Mansilingan, Bacolod City.
The Pavilion has registered an estimated average of 1000 buyers, picture–takers and day-trippers every day. They were mostly teen-agers and families. A lot of individual sightseers, including Koreans, Germans, Norwegians, Dutch, Americans and Canadians, were also spotted in the area.
Most of the visitors thronged to the booth to take pictures along with the pavilion’s mechanically moving replicas. These included the giant crab, killer whale, monkeys and Dinagsa (ati-atihan) warriors. But kids were just attracted to the lion’s head planted on the center ground.
Some of them took time to buy export quality dried fish and other marine products that Cadiz is famous for. Several others had Henna tattoo in themselves by the Cadiz Tukib artists and sipped the truly juicy Cadiz Sugarcane Juice by the Transform ARB Producers Multi-purpose Cooperative of Brgy. Magsaysay in Cadiz.
The most-visited Pavilion is of the “under the sea” concept. It is an artistic mock-up of the living sea creatures, reefs and seaweeds, with the animated giant sea turtle in the interior. An array of world-class quality shell products also added push to the vibrant pavilion’s inner section.
On the other hand, Mayor Salvador G. Escalante Jr. personally greeted Pampanga Congressman Juan Miguel Arroyo when the Presidential Son visited the Cadiz Pavilion during the opening of the 16th Panaad Sa Negros Festival 2009 last April 18. Senator Loren Legarda also stopped over and had his media interview at the Pavilion./*
