Malabon : A Tour on a City Once Named as Tambobong

Sapin-Sapin from the famous Dolor's Kakanin
I have always been visiting Malabon City since I was a child because our relatives live at its northeasternmost part, near the city's boundary with Valenzuela where an "arkong bato" can be found. Said "arkong bato" bears the name "Bulacan" on one side and "Rizal" on another side, a concrete evidence that once upon a time, Malabon City was once a part of the province of Rizal, and Valenzuela, of Bulacan. That was the only part of Malabon I have been to until last October 6, 2014. An invitation from a travel blogger friend (Jun De Dios of Lakwatserong Opis Worker), and the subsequent tour of the town, changed the way I see Malabon.
