DON Victoriano Chiongbian, or Don Victoriano for short, serves as the gateway to Mt. Malindang National Park, a complex volcano located in Misamis Occidental. The mountain range is home to many waterfalls, a crater lake, and virgin forests hosting rare species of flora and fauna. Don Victoriano plays host to those who wish to explore the majestic Mt. Malindang.

The Subanons, the gentle people of Mt. Malindang Natural Park, were originally river people. Their name is derived from the word soba or 'suba,' meaning 'river,' and the suffix 'non' indicating a locality or place of origin. The Subanon originally lived in the low-lying areas near the river. However, due to the influx of other settlers like the Moros, Cebuanos, and Boholanons to the coastal areas, they were pushed further into the interiors. Now, many of them live in the uplands of Mt. Malindang and have become the guardians of this sacred mountain, planting flowering plants, fruits, and vegetables along its slopes.
