Arevalo, Iloilo City

Arevalo is one of the six districts of Iloilo City, in the Philippine province of "Iloilo". It was originally founded as "La Villa Arevalo" by a Spanish official who built his mansion along the coastal settlement in the 16th Century. It was absorbed by Iloilo City during the 20th Century along with the towns of Mandurriao, La Paz, Molo and the city of Jaro. Its historical church possesses one of the oldest "Sto. Niño" (Infant Jesus) figurines in the Philippines. Its prominent attraction is the Villa Beach along the coast which boasts several resorts and an outdoor nightlife such as open air restaurants and bars.
