Bacolod is the capital City or Negros Occidental in the Philippines. It is known as the city of smiles because or it’s MassKara Festival a Mardi Gras-like festival and a spectacularly vivid mix of dance, color and music. The name Bacolod was derived from the Hiligaynon word, Buklod meaning stonehill, as the city was first set up on a stonehill. Due to Moro (Muslim) raids it was then transferred to the shoreline. The original town is now called Daan-Banwa meaning Old Town.
