DALAGUETE, a town of the province of Cebu, island of Cebu, Philippine Islands, at the mouth of the TapOn river on the E. coast, 50 m. S.S.W. of Cebu, the capital. The town has a healthy climate, cool during November, December, January and February, and hot during the rest of the year. The inhabitants grow hemp, Indian corn, coffee, sibucao, cacao, cocoanuts (for copra) and sugar, weave rough fabrics and manufacture tuba (a kind of wine used as a stimulant), clay pots and jars,salt and soap. There is some fishing here. The language is Ceb6-Visayan.
The coolest spring in dalaguete is located at Balud, Dalaguete, Cebu.
The Obong Spring is a fresh water spring which emanates near the beach. Because of steady outpour of water, a pool of freshwater meets the sea especially when the tide is high and the water become brackish. So, that’s the explanation behind such mystery.
Osmena Peak is known to be the highest peak in the province and Island of Cebu. Base on actual GPS altitude, it stand approximately 1000 meters above sea level. Osmena peak is located in the vicinity area of Mantalongon, (a town that is around 700 to 800 meters and probably one of the highest towns in Cebu. Mantalongon has been known as the vegetable kingdom of Cebu. Its really unusual finding this town where you feel it was like an area in the Cordilleras were they have their trading post for vegetable dealers and townfolks and children are wearing jackets at high noon. Reminds me of Baguio City and La Trinidad).
Dalaguete's Haring "Gangis"
A cicada (pronounced /sɪˈkeɪdə/ or pronounced /sɪˈkɑːdə/) is an insect of the order Hemiptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha, in the superfamily Cicadoidea. Cicadas live in temperate to tropical climates where they are among the most widely recognized of all insects, mainly due to their remarkable acoustic talents.The name is a direct derivation of the Latin cicada, meaning "buzzer". In classical Greek, it was called a tettix, and in
modern Greek tzitzikas—both names being onomatopoeic.Male cicadas have loud noisemakers called "tymbals" on the sides of the abdominal base. The tymbals are regions of the exoskeleton that are modified to form a complex membrane with thin, membranous portions and thickened "ribs".Contracting the internal tymbal muscles produces a clicking sound as the tymbals buckle inwards. As these muscles relax, the tymbals return to their original position producing another click.Contracting the internal tymbal muscles produces a clicking sound as the tymbals buckle inwards. As these muscles relax, the tymbals return to their original position producing another click.Average temperature of the natural habitat for this species is approximately 29 °C (84 °F). During sound production the temperature of the tymbal muscles were found to be slightly higher.[10] Cicadas like heat and do their most spirited singing during the hotter hours of a summer day. Some cicadas produce sounds up to 120 dB (SPL)[11] "at close range", among the loudest of all insect-produced sounds.[12] This is especially notable as their song is technically loud enough to cause permanent hearing loss in humans, should the cicada sing just outside the listener's ear (unlikely).
