🇵🇭 [4K] The New Look of Ozamiz City 2023 | Misamis Occidental | Walking Tour | Mindanao

Ozamiz was formerly known as Misamis -- a name believed to have been derived from a Subanen word kuyamis, a variety of coconut. Other unverified historical sources, however, suggest that the name Misamis came from the Spanish word Misa (Catholic Mass).

After the war, Misamis became a chartered city by virtue of Republic Act 321 on July 16, 1948. This also renamed Misamis to Ozamiz after a hero José Ozámiz who hailed from the province of Misamis Occidental and who at one time also served as its governor and congressional representative of the Lone District of Misamis Occidental.
