Pilang siglu manibat anyang metatag ya ing balen ning Angeles, dacal ne iti apatunayan king pamagbayu kumpara nung nanu ya iti king milabas a panahun. Manibat king metung a masukal a kabalenan ning Kuliat, anggang ngeni na metung neng matatag a lunsud, malawut ne atamasa ing balen a liguran da reng memalen na inawus dang Angeleños.

Pero ing biye Angeleño, ali yamu santing at sigla. Dinatang ya ing panawun ning delubyu dela na ning Bunduk Pinatubu. Ing lusak a dala na ning Pinatubu ing megsilbing pile na ning balen at mematid king sana masanting nang pag-asensu ning Angeles. Maigit king 60,000 kabalen ring mesalanta at halus sinira na ngan ing apundar na ning balen Angeles king makabang panahun.

Ibat king dampa ning kebagsakan, pinilit da reng kabalen Angeleños na italakad ing misan a malagung paraisu ning Angeles. Sinikap deng italakad pasibayu at umpisan ing mas masanting a balen.

Balamu, metung a banal a ayup a sinibul manibat king abu ning melabas. Sinlag la ulit reng bagius na ngeni, magsilbing gabe daring bawat memalen papunta king higit na matulid at masaleseng dalan.

Ali pa yari ing laban para king tune a tagumpe. Kaya misan pa Angeleños, sabe-sabe talang ipaspas ring kekatamung bagius at manatiling metung a masaganang balen. Sulagpo ka ta ngan angga adasan te ing banua na ning higit a pamamunyagi at higit a kabyasnan abe ning leguran tang pamamalakad.

Ali mu misan nung ali lagi… tandanan tamu na nung miabe-abe at misaup-saup la reng Angeleños, alang impusibli king kaburyan tang mabating king sukal na ning milabas.

Ngeni na ganap neng mitalakad ulit ibat king pangaragsa, uli na ning sinibul a bagius king balang metung a memalen Angeles, agkat naka tamu ngan misanmetung at salangi king kayang lukuban.

Pagkat ing metung a tune memalen Angeleño, maniwala ya na nung abe-abe at saup-saup, miratang ta king buri tang aratang. Atin mang unus o ala.

Angeleños, mekeni, SALANGI KAYU PU!

Salangi  ko pu!

This invitation is more than the ordinary “mekeni” or “malaus ko pu” which literally means “come” or “welcome.”

It is an invitation to a passer-by to enter one’s home and have a shelter from the heat of the sun or the danger of a storm.

It is an invitation to share a meal, a refreshing drink or stories.  In the midst of this sharing, the visitor is presumed to share the light of his presence to the family or to the people who have extended the invitation.

“Salangi” is a word derived from the root “sala” which means ‘light’. Salangi , therefore, is an invitation to bring or to give  light and brighten the abode where one is invited.

Whoever you are and wherever you are from- come, visit and stay a few hours or days with us.
Be mesmerized by the pulsating lights of the entertainment center of Central Luzon.

Taste, smell and be filled with the unique and rich flavor of Kapampangan and international cuisine.

Experience the original Angeles Sisig; rub elbows with thousands of people enjoying the festivities of the Tigtigan Terakan king Dalan Festival; fly high with the hot air balloons; enjoy a month-long Fiesta celebration of the Fiestang Kuliat.

There is more to Angeles City than meets the eye.

With your presence, our city, will shine brighter, soar higher and beat faster.

Salangi ko pu and say:  ANGELES CITY: I Like!

This is because when Angeleños speak of hospitality, they do not just do it; they provide it with warmth and sincerity.
