After writing about Old Manila, I want to write about my town, my city- Dagupan. Last month, i was tasked to finish a video on the history of Dagupan (well, the Chinese Migration in Dagupan City). And ended up learning more, falling in love with Dagupan heritage and history, and at the same time develop that kind of yearning to teach, preserve and pass on what I have learned and saw.
Dagupan used to play such a crucial part in trade and politics in the North. Not only is it strategically located to control Northern Luzon, businesses and trade are so progressive that it has the second most number of banking transaction in the country. 
Culturally, Dagupan plays a vital part as well. We have great cinemas and hosts premiere nights during the 60s. thats how great it is to be in Dagupan. Its the "it" place.
