Paniqui, municipality of the Philippines in the province of Tarlac
Paniqui is a municipality in Tarlac Province situated between six neighboring municipalities at an elevation of 21 meters (70 feet). The area is home to about 103,000 residents and divided into administrative divisions that deliver local services to the population.
The settlement began in 1712 when the Pangasinan provincial government established local administration in a place called Manggang Marikit. This location was notable for its numerous caves inhabited by bats.
The municipality is organized into 35 barangays where residents gather for traditional Filipino celebrations and participate in local affairs together. These neighborhoods form the backbone of daily life and shape how people interact within their communities.
The local government operates service offices that provide assistance with housing and health matters, along with administrative centers for official documents. Visitors will find the services organized in the typical way for Philippine municipalities, making it easy to locate what is needed.
The name derives from the word Pampaniki, which means bat in the Ilocano language and references the caves that once defined the landscape. This linguistic root reflects the natural features that shaped the place.
