Our Barangays
Alaminos city has thirty-nine (39) barangays, each with its own history and unique origins, passed on through generations. Each blessed with its own natural resources and traditions but remain an Alaminian, working towards the city's vision of a peaceful and progressive community for all.
It was formerly named Sta. Isabel and was divided into two [2] sitios, Alos Sur and Alos Norte. It was further divided into six [6] sitios during the Spanish regime - Tangcarang, Linmansangan, Macatiw, Manga, Quibuar and Maaoi [w/c are now independent barangays]. [ more ] |
According to folk stories, the Barangay has been named during the Japanese occupation in the Philippines. One day, while an old man was gathering edible snails called “bisocol” in the rice field, a group of Japanese came and approached him. [ more ] |
