Antequera, officially the Municipality of Antequera (Cebuano: Munisipalidad sa Antequera; Tagalog: Bayan ng Antequera), is a 4th class municipality in the province of Bohol, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 14,990 people.[3]

Located 19 kilometres (12 mi) north of Tagbilaran, popular places of interest in Antequera are the weekly basket market and Mag-Aso Falls. The Mag-Aso falls, whose cascading waters run into natural pools, were greatly altered by the 2013 Bohol earthquake and even more so by flash floods caused by Tropical Storm Seniang in December 2014.[5]
