The Abatan river which traverses the municipalities of Cortes, Maribojoc, Antequera, Balilihan and Catigbian, is bestowed with natural environment and unique landscapes, a place where Bohol’s significant history also took place. Hence, added attraction is the cultural tourism activities such as visits to historical sites and monuments, attending performing arts and other cultural events.
