- About Leyte
Leyte Leyte is one of the country's historic provinces. It is the site of uprising against the Spaniards and the famous landing of U.S. forces during World War II. This historical consciousness is reflected in Leyte's seal, with stars symbolizing the 49 towns of the province and an alphabet on cross argent representing the ancient letter L. A white cross indicates the second phase of Leyte's development, when Magellan passed through en route to Cebu, while the upper portion commemorates the landing of Gen. Douglas MacArthur through a perspective of the National Freedom Park. http://leyte.cmnworks.com
