Cruz of Barangay Central to Purok Bularan of Barangay Miputak. It is equipped with basketball courts and playground part. It is also the site of the annual "P'gsalabuk Festival" and other similar events,[1] motor company trade shows, and sporting events like marathons and triathlons.[2] There are two commercial buildings augmenting the presently existing restaurants, bars, and several food and beverage peddlers.
