It’s a hot summer day in the Philippines’ city of love, but the heat is nothing to a group of young Filipinos who seem to be in the middle of a dance routine. Their studio lies by the Iloilo River, their rehearsal space surrounded by palm trees and violet-pink flowers, at the public park that the Ilonggo people are proud to claim as their own.

The 1.2-kilometer riverside lateral park, which opened in 2012, is now a popular site for joggers, bikers, tourists, and locals looking for some breathing space in the bustling hub of Western Visayas.
