Mambukal Mountain Resort in Murcia Negros Occidental is once again ready to stage the annual Mudpack Festival. The festival is very unique and one of its kind. Though I have not personally seen this yet, I have seen tons of photos and videos of this great event. The festivities is characterized by dancers painting themselves with colored mud which is very abundant in Mambukal area, which is just at the foot of Mt. Kanlaon.
