Mindanao, the second-largest island in the Philippines, spans an area of 97,530 km² and is a remarkable blend of diverse cultures and breathtaking geography. It is home to a rich tapestry of over 30 indigenous tribes, including the Maranao, Tausug, and various Lumad groups, each with unique traditions and languages. The island’s landscape is equally diverse, featuring the Philippines’ highest peak, Mount Apo, lush rainforests, and a rich marine ecosystem part of the Coral Triangle.
Known as the “Food Basket of the Philippines,” Mindanao plays a crucial role in agriculture, producing various crops like bananas and coconuts. Its cultural richness is showcased in vibrant festivals like the Kadayawan, and its history is marked by its significant role in the country’s Muslim community and resistance during the colonial era.
