SAN CARLOS CITY, NEGROS OCCIDENTAL


San Carlos City traces its history from being a small Negrito settlement named
Nabingkalan. This settlement was later bought by Carlos Apurado who developed it into a
thriving Christian village. The place was renamed San Carlos in 1856 when it was made a
“pueblo” by the Spanish government. The municipality's status was elevated into a city on July
1, 1960, per Republic Act No. 2643, approved on June 18, 1960, and Presidential Proclamation
No. 685 s. 1960.

People’s Park as a resource and guide for one of


San Carlos City’s most visited landmarks.
Overlooking Sipaway Island, has a fresh water
swimming pool, children’s playground, gazebo,
kiosks, promenade, picnic area and pavilion.

A visual masterpiece, People’s Park has gone


through major developments and restoration
over time to carry on its initial purpose as an
open-air oasis for the city. No matter the season
or reason for your visit, this historic landmark is a
setting for enjoying many pursuits.

Alinsyawan falls is one of the beauty


spots in San Carlos City, located in Sitio
Palampas one of the Barangays of the
city. The people are friendly and you will

nature.

Sipaway, or Refugio Island, as its geographic


name goes, is an island which is located 15
minutes (more or less) away from the center
of San Carlos City in Negros Occidental.
