Rosario

Rosario is a municipality in Batangas province in the Philippines, positioned in a region with access to Manila Bay. The town combines rural and urban areas with local markets and residential neighborhoods that shape daily community life.

The settlement was established as an independent municipality in 1846, marking its separation from earlier joined territories. This founding created a distinct administrative entity within the region.

The name Tejero reflects the traditional weaving practices that defined the early economic activities of local women in this coastal region.

The municipality is approximately 20 kilometers from the international airport and reachable through multiple transportation routes. Visitors should note the local bus lines and ride services that connect the town to larger centers.

The region was historically known for salt production, an activity that long shaped the local economy and identity. This maritime aspect left lasting marks on the development and character of the place.
