Introduction
Traditions are more than practices. They're the heartbeat of Filipino's rich culture. Respect, gratitude, and strong family bonds are threads woven throughout the traditions that make up the rich fabric of Filipino culture. In addition to honoring the very core of Filipino culture, these traditions serve as a reminder of the rich tapestry of values that make up the Filipino people. In this blog, we look at some of the treasured Filipino traditions that emphasize their culture, from saying "SALAMAT" and the polite use of "po," "opo," and "pagmamano" to saying "Bayad po" when paying the fare and sitting up straight, to the beloved pre-wedding tradition known as "Pamamanhikan." Join us on this exciting journey through the heart of Filipino culture and learn the kindness, respect, and sense of unity that make these traditions an essential part of the Filipinos as a whole.
