Urdaneta

Urdaneta, Component city in Pangasinan, Philippines.

Urdaneta is a component city in Pangasinan that spans a large territory and serves as a central transportation hub connecting several towns and provinces. It is home to the region's largest livestock market, which supplies surrounding areas and drives economic activity for the locality.

The settlement was founded in 1858 and named after Father Andrés de Urdaneta, a Spanish navigator who participated in an early expedition to the Philippines. This historical origin shapes the city's identity to this day.

The Dumayo Festival brings together the different neighborhoods through performances, markets, and community celebrations that display local traditions. The event shows how people here express their identity and connection to the city.

The city is easy to reach and well positioned for passing through or changing routes between different destinations. Visitors should know that the early morning is the best time to visit the livestock market when most transactions take place.

The city is home to two different religious institutions side by side: a traditional Catholic cathedral and a theological seminary of another Christian church. This coexistence of different faith communities is notable for the region's religious landscape.
