What started as a small community under the bridge slowly evolved into the Balikbayan community we have today. Through the years, we’ve shared countless stories of craftsmanship, celebrated memorable events and activities, and met wonderful people along the way.

This October 15–18, we’re excited to share even more stories, meet new faces, and take a journey back to where it all began: ILS DE TULS.

Quiapo Marketplace known for its wide variety of indigenous and practical Filipino crafts—from bilao, baskets, mortars and pestles, to sungka, woven pieces, carved objects, shell décor, trays, lampshades, picture frames, souvenirs, and other pasalubong. The Ilalim ng Tulay became a meeting point between regional craftsmanship and everyday Filipino life.

For Balikbayan Handicrafts, ILS DE TULS represents the story of our meaningful past. It represents where our journey began. From a humble beginning in Quiapo in 1968, the story of Balikbayan grew alongside a marketplace that brought the craftsmanship of different Philippine communities closer to Filipinos, and beyond.
