Overview
Inabanga Cultural and Creative Park is an open-air park in Poblacion, Inabanga, built around murals and visual-art installations distributed across the grounds, with a children’s playground alongside. During fiesta season and Christmas, the park doubles as a food-bazaar site, drawing crowds beyond its usual daytime foot traffic.
Location
Poblacion, Inabanga, northern Bohol. The park is in the town centre, close to the St. Paul the Apostle Parish church.
Getting There
Inabanga is accessible from Tagbilaran City by bus or van (approximately 1.5–2 hours north via the Trans-Central Highway or coastal road). From Talibon (north coast), Inabanga is roughly 30 minutes by jeepney. The park is in Poblacion, walkable from the bus terminal and church.

What to Expect
The park functions less as a single destination than as a stop within Poblacion’s walkable core — it sits close enough to St. Paul the Apostle Parish, one of northern Bohol’s heritage churches, that most visitors combine the two in one visit. The murals draw a steady stream of casual photographers, while the playground keeps it a genuine neighbourhood space rather than a tourist-only installation. During the Inabanga fiesta and Christmas period, food stalls turn the same grounds into a gathering point for the wider municipality.
