Banak Festival was dedicated to a legend, Saint Anne that gathers natives of Taguig. When the farmers and agriculturists lost their all plants and reaps, they were in emergency in stock of food. With the help of Holy Anne and her daughter Mary, they brought the Taguigenos with overflowing banak angles. And as a thanksgiving, they toss dried foods that is known as "Pasubo" that happens in every 26th of July.
