Facts and practical information
Located in the eastern portion of Misamis Oriental and roughly a 2-hour drive from Cagayan de Oro is the historical haven of North Poblacion in the Municipality of Medina where the Pelaez Ancestral House can be found standing still. This house had stood witness to the diverse political and historical lives of two of the famous bygone personalities in the politics arena in the locality and in the country as well – Don Gregorio A. Pelaez, Sr. and his son, Emmanuel N. Pelaez, Sr. When people ask for direction, the local townsfolk refer to the house as the "Pelaez White House" because of the walls that are washed in white. ()
