Zamboanga City

Zamboanga City is in the Mindanao region of the Philippines. Known as the City of Flowers, it is now one of the most important and busiest port cities in the Philippines. The Chavacano (popularly known as Zamboangueno, which is based on 70% Spanish words, and 30% Tagalog, Cebuano and other Philippine languages) made Zamboanga as "Asia's Latin City." This is also because of the same traditions with Spain, particularly the patroness Our Lady of the Pillar (which is also the Patroness of Spain).
