478.30 km². The city itself is a very diverse one. It has a wide collection
of flora & fauna found in its hinterlands. It also has myriads of

be found elsewhere. The city has evolved for the better. This City is very
progressive among the cities of Negros Oriental.
Mostly, the highest
concentration of professionals towards its population is in this city and
produces most of the musical talents for the province. It is best known, moreover, for two other proud-makers: the
portable feast "bud-bud sa Tanjay", which has birthed a
Bud-bud Festival due
to the popularity of its glutinous delicacy;
Saulog Festival of
Tanjay, a festival, with an 1814 ancestry, revived in the
1980's to enliven the fiesta. Sugarcane plantations can be found all over
the city, as well as shimmering bangus (milkfish) ponds.
Every friday night there's a ballroom dancing at the plaza of Tanjay City
