Where is captivating Capiz? It is geographically found on Western Visayas Region of the Philippines. It is located on a small island formed by the Panay and Banica rivers. The soil is poor in the northern part of the island and is most productive only in the southern part. Capiz is bounded by the Mindoro sea, the Panay, Loctugan and Ivisan rivers.

Why Capiz? It is believed that the name of the province was taken from the words “Kapid” and “Pios” which are mollusk that is very abundant on the place. Capiz shells are raw materials used in making captivating windows, lanterns, vases and other decorations.

When in the history of the captivating Capiz and Aklan were separated?  In 1956, under the law R.A. 1414 signed by President Magsaysay.
