Calasiao is a first class municipality in the province of Pangasinan, Philippines. According to the 2010 census, the city has a population of 91,109 people.〔 In the Pangasinan language, the town is called "''Baley na Calasiao''", which means "town of Calasiao". The name Calasiao was derived from the native word ''Kalasian'', which means "a place where lightning frequently occurs", from the root word ''lasi'', meaning "lightning". Upon the arrival of the Spaniards, they called the place "''Lugar de Rayos''", a literal Spanish translation of the word ''Kalasian''. It was named as such because it is said that Calasiao back in the day was always frequented by this natural phenomenon. Today, Calasiao is known as a First Class Municipality and is located at the very heart of Pangasinan. It governs 24 barangays and 31 sitios in a total land area of 5,339 hectares.() Calasiao's flagship product is the native rice cake known as Puto Calasiao. ==Barangays== Calasiao is politically subdivided into 24 barangays.〔 * Ambonao * Ambuetel * Banaoang * Bued * Buenlag * Cabilocaan * Dinalaoan * Doyong * Gabon * Lasip * Longos * Lumbang * Macabito * Malabago * Mancup * Nagsaing * Nalsian * Poblacion East * Poblacion West * Quesban * San Miguel * San Vicente * Songkoy * Talibaew 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Calasiao, Pangasinan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
