Blood Compact Souvenirs

Overview

Blood Compact Souvenirs is a retail shop in Barangay Bool, Tagbilaran City, listed in the BPTO provincial inventory under Souvenirs and Delicacies. It operates in proximity to the Blood Compact Shrine heritage zone, serving visitors on countryside tours.

A genuine search did not turn up a business listing, Facebook page, or news mention specifically naming “Blood Compact Souvenirs.” Visitor reviews of the neighboring Blood Compact Monument do describe an informal vendor scene at the monument grounds — older local vendors selling keychains, refrigerator magnets, and coin purses with tarsier and local motifs at low prices (one reviewer cited “8 items for 100 pesos” on keychains/magnets), alongside photographers offering souvenir photos. It is not confirmed whether this named entry refers to that informal vendor cluster or to a separate, standalone shop — treat the two as distinct until verified on the ground.

[FACT NEEDED: full description, and confirmation of whether this is the same operation as the informal vendor stalls at the monument or a separate shop, requires enrichment.]

Location

Barangay Bool, Tagbilaran City, Bohol. The Bool area is approximately 3 km from Tagbilaran City center.

Getting There

Accessible via tricycle from Tagbilaran City proper (~10 minutes). Most visitors arrive as part of a Bohol countryside tour that includes the Blood Compact Shrine.

Practical Info

• Tourism type: Shopping — Souvenirs and Delicacies
• [FACT NEEDED: operating hours, specific products sold, pricing range, contact]

What to Expect

A souvenir shop serving the Bool heritage visitor corridor. Typical Bohol souvenir shops in this area carry locally produced handicrafts, calamay (sweet rice-based confection), dried mangoes, and small heritage-themed items.

[TO ENRICH: product inventory, whether it is a single stall or multi-vendor market, operator details]

Notes

The Bool district concentrates several tourist-adjacent businesses alongside the heritage monuments. This entry is listed separately from the “Bool Junction Market” in the BPTO inventory, suggesting it is a distinct retail operation rather than part of the public market.

Quick Stop for Cheap Souvenirs - Review of Blood Compact Monument, accessed 2026-07-17. This source describes vendors at the Blood Compact Monument generally, not the named shop specifically — see caveat above.

2026-07-28 research round (fresh-angle attempt): Tried source types not checked in the prior pass — official Bohol tourism/business directory pages, Facebook, Google Maps, Filipino-language search terms, and independent travel blogs — to avoid repeating the same dead-end query. Searches run: "Blood Compact Souvenirs" Tagbilaran Bool Google Maps, "Blood Compact Souvenirs" Bohol facebook, BPTO Bohol Tourism souvenirs delicacies inventory Bool Tagbilaran, "souvenir shop" Bool Tagbilaran Sandugo pasalubong tindahan, "Blood Compact" souvenir shop Bool operating hours contact number, "Blood Compact Souvenir Shop" OR "Blood Compact Souvenir" Bohol -Monument -Shrine. Sources checked directly (fetched, not just search snippets): Description of Island Souvenirs (bohol.ph business directory — Island City Mall listing, no match), Description of Tagbilaran City Tourism (bohol.ph directory category page, no match), SANDUGO: Blood Compact Shrine in Bohol (blog — gives general-area souvenir pricing, T-shirts ₱99–150 and kalamay ₱100/3pcs, but does not name a specific shop, so not attributable to this entity), and Discovering Bohol: Blood Compact (2012 personal blog — confirms an unnamed souvenir shop “just outside the shrine” selling wallets, keychains, bags, shirts, plus cheaper street vendors, but again no name, hours, contact, or pricing tied to it). No Facebook page, Google Maps/Business listing, or news source naming “Blood Compact Souvenirs” specifically was found. All accessed 2026-07-28. Conclusion: the name appears to exist only in the BPTO provincial inventory (not independently verifiable online); the general vendor/shop descriptions above still cannot be confidently attributed to this specific listed entity, so they have not been written into the body to avoid misattribution. All three fact gaps remain open pending on-the-ground verification (e.g. a site visit or direct BPTO/LGU contact) rather than further remote search, which has now been tried from multiple angles without success.
