There are areas north of Manila that show rich culture and tradition. One is Camiling in
Tarlac. You can tell what a welcoming atmosphere it has adopted in the past from the way
business infrastructures are developed and how people interact.Camiling, which serves as a
gateway to Western and Central Pangasinan, bows.
When it was separated from the town of Pangasinan in 1838, it was formed as a town. It
used to be a bustling Paniqui community. Camiling was thought to be part of Bayambang,
Pangasinan, by some. Camiling was said to have belonged to Paniqui when a Spanish text was
unearthed in 1937. At first, the town's identity was a source of contention. Camiling used to be a
large area where cogon was farmed, spanning all the way to Zambales.
The first settlers were known as "Aetas," who relied on trees for shelter and hunted and fished
for food on a regular basis. When the native Pangasinenses and Ilocanos flourished, the Aetas
were compelled to relocate to the inland rather than roaming freely in the wild. Some Aetas can
still be seen living in Camiling's hilly hills.
Camiling is thought to have been named after the camiring tree. Back ago, there were a
lot of these trees. For a more flowing tone, Camiring was renamed Camiling. Don Francisco
Soriano, who was serving as Camiling's first district commissioner at the time, was instrumental
in converting the town into a district in 1834. Domingo Claudio, Bernabe Bugarin, and Pascual
Cabacungan succeeded him. Camiling became a separate town from its mother town of Paniqui
after four years.
Don Vicente Galsim was the first governor, and he was succeeded by 38 others over the
years. Don Buenaventura Torres was the final Spanish governor of the Philippines and the first
municipal president under President Emilio Aguinaldo. The death of General Pedro Pedroche
and his men at the Camiling Catholic Convent was historically significant.

When it comes to income and economy, Camiling is one of Tarlac's fastest-growing

municipalities. It is also regarded as having one of the most diverse cultural heritages in the
province. Because it is one of the earliest municipalities formed by the Spanish government
within the province of Pangasinan, where it previously encompassed the former barrios of
Mayantoc, San Clemente, and Santa Ignacia, the town is also known as the "Old Lady in the
Northwestern Province of Tarlac."Churches, ancient buildings, and ruins are among the
municipality's cultural treasures. The baroque church of Camiling, on the other hand, is yet to be
reconstructed 20 years after a fire destroyed its interior. The interior of the church, one of
Tarlac's only two remaining Spanish churches, has become a cesspool for human waste, while
the facade (front) and buttresses (side supports) have been taken over by businesses.
A commercial store has turned one of the buttresses into a toilet. Following the release of
the studies in March 2018, heritage advocates and Camiling residents have started fighting for
the church's restoration. Camiling is the largest municipality in Tarlac's northwestern region. It is
the commercial center of a region that includes around eight towns and borders Pangasinan
province. Through the Romulo Highway, it is the entryway to central and western Pangasinan
(formerly Highway 13). It is also known for its famed "ChicharonCamiling" and "Nilubyan," a
green native rice cake.
