Solano

城市概覽

Solano originated as the village of Bintauan, and was first inhabited by the indigenous Gaddang people. In 1767, a Spanish Dominican mission was set up, and in 1768, the town was renamed to Lungabang, from a Gaddang word for cave; the Spaniards soon respelled it to Lumabang for convenience. For a year, between 1851, Lumabang was downgraded to a barrio of Bayombong due to its small population size. The Governor General of the Philippines of that time, Antonio Urbiztondo soon made the town independent again, which was followed by the entry of the first Ilocano settlers in 1853. In 1889, Lumabang was renamed to Solano after another Spanish Governor General, Ramón Solano y Llanderal. Solano municipality used to be the largest municipality of Nueva Vizcaya until the barrios of Caliat and Bintawan was separated and made their own municipalities, renamed Quezon and Villaverde. With its large population and commercial activity, Solano is eyed to become the next city in Cagayan Valley, and the first for Nueva Vizcaya. Solano poblacion or town center is a planned town, with 20 m (66 ft) streets laid out in a grid and blocks measuring a hectare in size. It is then divided into six barangays. The central Catholic church, the plaza, the public market and the transport terminal is at the rough center of town. Commercial activity is concentrated along Maharlika Highway (Route 1/AH26), which passes through town as Rizal and Aquino Avenues.

當地交通

Solano is a large town with wide streets, but is walkable. The main sights are within walking distance, so is the public market and the commercial area. There are tricycle stands around the bus and jeepney station, the church and the public market. Traffic is a serious problem in downtown, particularly along Maharlika Highway. A diversion road has been built to bypass the area. This runs from Barangay Bascaran in the north to Bonfal junction in Bayombong to the south. In between is a junction with the Solano-Quezon Road.
