Capiz: More than just the seafood capital of the Philippines

Capiz has been in the shadow of its more famous neighbors such as Bacolod and Boracay for quite some time now, but it is gradually gaining popularity as an alternative destination for those who want to explore the Visayas region. 

Despite the misconception that Capiz is home to aswangs (mythical creatures), its actual claim to fame is its abundance of seafood—from fresh shellfish to dried fish and even the rare diwal or angel wing clam.

History of the Parish of Immaculate Conception Metropolitan Cathedral Roxas City Roxas City was formerly called Capiz.  Capiz came from the word "Kapris", a kind of shell still common today.  As a town, it was founded in 1693, as a parish, in 1707. In spite of its having been destroyed several times by the moros, Capiz became the capital of the province around the middle of 18th century due to its strategic location and prosperity. The Capizeños have always been friendly and peace-loving.  Only once was the public order disturbed during the Spanish regime. This happened during the time of Governor Duran who committed so many injustices.  As a result of these rampant abuses around 1,000 rose up against Duran. The timely intervention of the parish priest saved Duran his life; but only after he swore to correct the abuses. When Capiz became a diocese in 1951, Msgr. Vicente Gonzales was the incumbent parish priest. He was succeeded by the following: Msgr. Edmundo Fuerte, Msgr. Vicente Hilata, and Archbishop Onesimo C. Gordoncillo, the present parish priest.
