Maribojoc is a coastal town in the province of Bohol, Philippines, located in the Central Visayas Region, about 14 kilometers from the provincial capital of Tabilaran. The town is known for its rich historical sites and natural beauty, the most famous landmark being the San Vicente Ferrer Church built in the 18th century, a typical Spanish colonial baroque building listed as a Philippine National Historic Property. Surrounded by long white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters, it is a popular destination for scuba diving and eco-tourism, and the nearby landscapes of the Baclayon and Chocolate Hills attract many tourists. With a local economy based on agriculture, fishing and tourism, and a friendly and welcoming population that has preserved traditional Filipino culture, it is an ideal place to explore the history and natural charms of the province of Bohol.
Ruby is a small incorporated town in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana, United States, located about 60 miles northeast of the state capital of Baton Rouge and adjacent to the Mississippi border, and characterized by a quiet rural atmosphere and a deep community culture. Sparsely populated, with fewer than 500 people according to the most recent census, the town dates back to the late 1800s and, with its early rise to an agricultural economy (e.g., cotton and soybean farming), still retains the rustic look of a traditional Southern town. The town's landmarks include a century-old community church and several Victorian-style homes, and the annual fall "Ruby Family Day," which blends elements of local Cajun and Creole culture, has become a shared memory for the surrounding residents. Despite its small size, Ruby epitomizes the serenity of the American countryside with its simple folk and distinctive Louisiana southern flavor.
