Aside from agriculture being the main backbone of the town's economy, commerce and trade also became the second economic-based income of the town with the opening of numerous establishments, hotels and financial institutions recently which generated many opportunities and more employment for the people. Recently, [[SM Prime]] opened its first branch of [[SM Supermarket|Savemore]] in Tumauini along National Highway and also recently on the month of December Puregold Inc. opened its first Puregold Price Club Store or branch.This coming January 14 2016 the first ever mall in Tumauini,Isabela will be open to the public this mall is namely XENTRO MALL with tenant like McDonalds,Jollibee,Pandayan Bookshop,RRJ,Bibo Shoes,Mang Inasal and huge Savemore which is a clear manifestation that this town is gearing towards rapid commercialization. It is now considered to be one of the most progressive towns in the province of Isabela4 20transformation into an emerging agri-commercial oriented municipality became possible upon the assumption in office of Mayor Arnold S. Bautista. ==Attractions== This quiet town boasts of a famous historical landmark, the Tumauini Church. Built in the 1870s by the Dominicans, the church has a unique cylindrical bell tower made of bricks. Also one of the popular tourist attraction of the town is the Camp Samal Resort and Leisure Park where known as a semi-Tagaytay because of being high on its location where can view the entire town in the west, south and north and the Cordillera Sierra Madre in the east. ===San Matias Parish Church=== [[File:San Mattias Church, Tumauini, Isabela.jpg|thumb|250px|right|San Matias Church interior]] The [[Tumauini Church|Parish Church of San Matias]] was built in the 1780s by the Dominicans. This is the best-preserved church ensemble in Isabela although its convento is in ruins. The church can be considered to be the best and most artistic brick structure in the Philippines. The delicate brickwork is evident in the church itself and also in the cylindrical, confectionery-like bell tower (a later addition). In the convento's vaulted ceiling may still be seen impressions of the mats that were used as forms to mold wet plaster during construction. A low, undulating brick wall circumscribes the front garden. [PDI, Dec 16, 2001] First build of light materials by Francisco Nunez O. P., and dedicated to the Patron Saint, 1707. Separated from [[Cabagan]] and became a regular parish in 1751. The Roman Catholic Church was erected by the Dominican in 1753. They were made of bricks and coral stones with unique cylindrical bell tower, the only of its kind in the Philippines was constructed by Fr. Domingo Forto in 1793 and completed on 1805, became the capital of [[Isabela (province)|Isabela]] for sometimes in 1880′s. The Church was partly damaged during World War II and repaired into original form by the faithful of Tumauini. Furthermore, the church architectural design bear traces of Chinese artistry which confirms the belief that long before the Spaniards came to the Philippines, the Chinese had settled in the coastal towns of Northern Luzon. By virtue of Presidential Decree # 260, 11 August 1973, as amended by Executive Order No. 357, 14 January 1974 and No. 1505, 11 June 1978, the Church of Tumauini was declared a National Historical Landmark on February 24, 1989. ===Camp Samal=== The historic Camp Samal was the site of the National Jamboree in 1977 and is the home of the [[Boy Scouts of the Philippines]]. It is located at the eastern outskirts of the Spanish – built town of Tumauini, on a {{convert|23.5|ha}} of elevated mass of rolling hills 500 feet above sea level. It is endowed with natural spring, evergreen grasses, trees and shrubs. It overlooks the [[Cagayan River]], the [[Pinacanauan River]], the town of Tumauini itself, the municipality of [[Delfin Albano, Isabela|Delfin Albano]], and the [[Sierra Madre (Philippines)|Sierra Mountain ranges]]. Its name was derived from the first syllable of the surnames of the spouses, Ricardo C. Sadornas and Purificacion Malana who donated the camp to the Boy Scout of the Philippines in 1954. After the holding of the [[1977 National Jamboree]], the camp slept for 26 years until the assumption of Arnold S. Bautista in July 2001 as Municipal Mayor, who drew out the support of the government and private sectors for its restoration and development. It is still the favorite destination of the Boy Scout and [[Girl Scouts of the Philippines]] for their annual district and provincial encampments. It hosted another big event which is the 5th Northeastern Luzon Regional and Ilocos Region Invitational Jamboree of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines held last November 25 – 30, 2004 with a total of 5,281 participants. ===Mangi Festival=== Patronal town fiesta in honor to St. Mathias and the promotion of Tumauini as source of corn and its by-products. "Mangi" is the Ybanag term for corn and is celebrated with street dancing along the national hi-way. Tumauini is also the home of St. Mathias Church, a Spanish brick colonial church (1753) with the only cylindrical belfry in the country and is considered a national cultural treasure. One of the most enduring legacies of the Spanish colonial era lives on, quite literally in Tumauini, corn (Zea mays). It was one of the plants that came aboard the galleons and became one of the primary crops of the Philippines. It is interesting to note that corn seems to have transcended being a mere crop in Tumauini. The late National Artist for Dance, Ramon Obusan traced the origins of a traditional dance inspired by the crop to Tumauini. Thus, a corn inspired festival seemed especially appropriate for Tumauini. ==References== {{reflist}} 6. http://www.spcicdtourism.com/#!festival/ccp2 "Mangi Festival".
