Poblacion, Argao, Cebu Province (in Pictures)

Argao is a coastal municipality in the island province of Cebu.

The municipality has a land area of 191.50 square kilometers or 73.94 square miles which constitutes 3.87% of Cebu's total area. Its population as determined by the 2020 Census was 78,187. This represented 2.35% of the total population of Cebu province, or 0.97% of the overall population of the Central Visayas region. Based on these figures, the population density is computed at 408 inhabitants per square kilometer or 1,057 inhabitants per square mile. Argao has 45 barangays. (PhilAtlas)

Here are some of the pictures I took of Argao in the province of Cebu. The Church of Argao is almost identical to the Church of Dalaguete, a nearby town.The municipal hall, legislative building and the Rizal Monument is adjacent to the church.
