Santiago, Independent component city in Isabela, Philippines
Santiago extends over 275 square kilometers of predominantly flat terrain, situated between the Sierra Madre Mountain Range and the Cordillera Mountains in northern Luzon.
Spanish missionaries discovered native settlements along the Carig River in 1743, establishing the settlement initially named Pueblo of Santiago Apostol de Carig.
The Pattaradday Festival brings together different ethno-linguistic groups each May, presenting traditional dances and celebrations from the Gaddang and Ibanag communities.
The city contains multiple bus terminals and an integrated transportation hub that connects travelers to neighboring provinces throughout the Cagayan Valley region.
Santiago maintains complete independence from provincial oversight, with its local government operating autonomously from Isabela's administration since 1994.
