The Tartanilla Festival held every 12th of June is Cebu City’s way of preserving the tartanilla (horse-drawn carriage) heritage by reviving the oldest mode of transportation to ply some of the city’s streets. The festival coincides with the city’s celebration of the country’s Independence Day starting from June 1 to 12. Gaily decorated tartanillas driven by kutseros ply the streets of some of the city’s barangays and compete for several awards. Read More: https://rrhcssr.wordpress.com/cebu-festivals-2/
