Pasay
Manila Ocean Park - See amazing marine life and learn more about Philippine Marine Life at the Philippines' first
themed park. The Park is packed with unique experiences, and you may save money by bundling them together into one
ticket. Prices for packages vary from Php 500 to Php 900, depending on the included.
Star City - Enjoy the many rides and shows at this entertainment park. Star City is an amusement park for children
that covers 35,000 square meters and has rides and an indoor playground. Winter Fun Land, Dino Island, the Star Theater,
and many more attractions await you.
Taguig
BGC Park - There are several parks in Bonifacio Global City, perfect for relaxation and unwinding. The Kasalikasan
Garden is a great place to go since it has so much room for parties and weddings. The trees help make this park a desirable
destination for BGC residents and visitors alike. The weekend market requires the closure of a section of the road that
encircles Kasalikasan Garden.
Venice Piazza - The Venice Piazza, also known as the Venice Grand Canal Mall, is another iconic building in Taguig
City beside the Bonifacio Global City. The architecture and placement of the outdoor stores at this landmark were inspired
by Venice, Italy's Grand Canal. There is also the Grand Canal landscape, which may be seen by renting a gondola and
cruising along the canal. The Venice Grand Canal Mall or Venice Piazza is a terrific area to hang out with friends or a
significant other at night due to the beautiful Italian atmosphere. One other way to describe it is as a Taguig tourist
attraction.
Las Piñas
Mary Immaculate Parish - Seeking a spiritual home with a green focus. Just go to Mary's Immaculate Conception
Church. Some families would rather go to a church than a shopping mall, and this is one of the recommended churches in
Las Pias. The natural beauty of this area, which includes a mango orchard spanning four thousand square meters and a
babbling brook, has earned it the nickname "nature church." The sight of lush palm trees and other tropical flora along the
roadway is soothing. In addition, it offers a quiet space, which is ideal for contemplation and prayer. The Mary Immaculate
Parish Nature Church is located near many other points of interest, including Jamboree Lake, the Sunken Garden, the
Zapote Bridge, and others. Visitors will love this venue, that's for sure.
Parañaque Critical Habitat - The park offers a respite from the hustle and bustle of the city, with over 41 kinds of
birds found in and around the lagoons, mangrove forests, and mudflats. It is convenient since it is close to a subdivision,
hotel, and condo in Las Pias and Paraaque, as well as being a protected region on the shores of these Metro Manila cities.
CAR
Abra
Kili Falls & Hot Spring - Kili Falls is one of the many natural attractions in Abra, Philippines. It is in the outskirts of
Tubo, the southernmost town in Abra, and does not attract many visitors. The hike from the hamlet to the waterfall passes
through rice paddies and hanging bridges, reminiscent of those in Banaue, Ifugao, Benguet, or Mountain Province.
Apo Rolling Hills - Another off-the-beaten-path attraction in Tineg, Abra is the Apao Rolling Hills. Take in the lovely
vista of dry grassland-topped mountains from this vantage point over the high valley. At sunset, the mountains take on a
beautiful reddish hue that makes for some of the best scenery.
Piwek Rock Formation - This scenic area is located beyond the Apao Rolling Hills. The feature of this area is the
bright white limestone cliffs that line the Tineg River. A native guide may take you on a bamboo raft ride across the river
from Brgy. Alaoa in Tineg to the Piwek Rock Formations. You may choose between two paths. The more challenging but
more thrilling route involves some boulder-hopping and rock-climbing. The less strenuous one involves a flatter ascent.
Apayao
Dupag Rock Formation - There are some 7 or 8 foot tall, jagged limestone boulders that make up the Dupag Rock
Formation. If you are not a dedicated hiker, reaching the summits will be a difficult task. But I'm sure the rush and the vista
from the peak will more than make up for it. The rocks' rough and pointy surface necessitates the use of appropriate
footwear and safety equipment. "Father Rock" refers to the highest point. It offers a breathtaking panorama of the
countryside, mountains, and waterways beyond. Dupag rock was used by villagers and rebels alike as a safe haven during
times of conflict due to its advantageous terrain. This gives it significant historical significance in the region. It has quickly
become one of Luna, Apayao province's, most popular attractions.
Lussok Cave & Underground River - Lussok cave is a multi-chambered natural wonder that displays the splendor of
the natural world. Its expansive top calls to mind the dome of a church. One must take a boat voyage in order to enter the
cave. Like Palawan, it has an underground river. The river itself is stunning, with its clear, clean waters gushing out of the
cave. Stunning stalactite and stalagmite rock formations may be seen once inside. How such exquisiteness came into being
is a mystery to everybody. The cave's abundance of bats is another indicator of its high biodiversity. This is now one of
Apayao province's most visited attractions.
La Union
Gapuz Grapes Farm - The Gapuz Grapes Farm is a prime location for agricultural tours in La Union, Philippines.

group of 10 people eat together on a banana leaf.

Region II “CAGAYAN VALLEY”
Isabela
Gen. Aguinaldo Shrine - The shrine is one of the popular tourist destinations in Isabela since it commemorates the
capture of General Emilio Aguinaldo by the invading American soldiers on March 23, 1901. The general gave up and

stunning, taking in the surrounding mountains and green rice paddies. It's a wonderful place to relax and take in the
scenery.

reason. More than 5,000 acres are occupied by plants as tall as seven feet. You will feel like a giant as you navigate this

take a boat ride into its small passages. It's one of the cleanest and most beautiful places to visit on Isabela. Hiking through
these beautiful mountains will make you feel as if you've stepped back in time. Think about the incredible experiences you'll
have interacting with the many ecosystems and how untouched the area is.

attractions. It's a simple journey through unspoiled woods. The waterfall drops over 35 feet into an attractive pool below.

simply to cool down from the noon sun, but also for its restorative benefits. They say the waters can treat anything from the

scenery. You'll get immediate comfort from it. Take advantage of Ganano Falls' refreshingly chilly showers.
Liwayway Caves - There are a total of 15 caverns in the Liwayway caverns. If you go inside one of them, you will
come across beautiful limestone rock formations. The caverns themselves are fascinating, but the secondary woods in the
area are an extra bonus. In addition to an underground river, several of the caverns are home to bat colonies. It's one of the
province of Quirino's designated tourism preserves.
Bulacan

hanging bridges and stairs that go from one river or cave to another; these features were added to encourage travelers.
Biak-Na-Bato is a popular tourist destination, and for more reasons than just its proximity to exciting outdoor pursuits. A
literal translation of "Biak-Na-Bato" would be "split boulders," which is an apt description of the hundreds of massive rock
formations found in the region. The Philippine revolutionaries found this to be an ideal place for their underground
stronghold. It's true that several of the caverns were crucial to our success in the war against Spain. President Emilio
Aguinaldo hid away in many caves around the country, including Bahay Paniki Cave, Aguinaldo Cave, and Tanggapan Cave.

Maniwaya Island - Maniwaya Island, with its stunning natural beauty and relative isolation, is at the top of our list
as one of the most popular tourist sites in Marinduque. Sta. Cruz, Marinduque is the location of this unspoiled tropical
paradise. That's OK, since that means you'll have the stunning Maniwaya Island to yourself, with its clear blue seas, powdery
white dunes, and unspoiled atmosphere. Some of the island's hotels and motels provide opportunities for snorkelling,
kayaking, and paddle boarding, among other thrilling water pursuits. Sure, go ahead and do your hardest to get the greatest

visitors visiting Romblon. There are a lot of cool and unusual things to see on this island. Each end is linked to what seems
like a tiny island and a larger island by a long spit of sandbar; then, at each end, there is still another spit of sandbar.

seas, and a total area of only 5 hectares make this island paradise stand out. It is an uninhabited island in its natural state,

abundant marine life. It is often compared to Boracay, another popular destination 30 minutes away by boat.
Region V “BICOL REGION”
Camarines Norte
Calaguas Island - The Calaguas islands have dazzlingly clear blue sea and soft, white beaches. The nicest thing about
these islands is that you can camp there and then go straight to the water to acquire your fish for dinner. Pinagtigasan
Beach on Tinaga Island, Cumalasag, Pinagtakpan, Pinacastillohan, Guintinua, Huag, Calangcawan Sur, Mantigbi Beach, and
many more are all part of the Calaguas group of islands.
Mampurog River - You should go to the Mampurog River if you've had enough of the beach by this point. The
calming effect of the flowing water comes from its lushness, its purity, and the sound it makes as it moves through the
landscape. Choosing to spend the remainder of the day in this peaceful location will give you the impression that you are a
part of the natural world around you. Keep in mind that you will need to carry your own food with you if you travel to this
location since there may not be many places to eat in the vicinity.
Camarines Sur

white, and the ocean is a brilliant blue. Both sides of the island have impressive rock structures and coral reefs. It takes
roughly 15 minutes to walk around the whole island. There are no stores on the island, so vacationers will have to bring
everything they could need with them.
Catanduanes
Summit View Park - In Catanduanes, you don't have to go on any long hikes to see an incredible cloud sea. Yes, you
can reach the municipality of Viga from Virac in approximately an hour. Summit View Park is immediately seen as you
approach town. A breathtaking view of the sea of clouds awaits you only a few steps up the stairs. We got up early to see
the sunrise and take in the stunning panorama. The highlight of our trip was the summit breakfast that was arranged for us
by the local government and the Catanduanes tourist office. It was one of the highlights of my time in Catanduanes.
Paday Falls - The province is home to numerous spectacular waterfalls, including Paday Falls. Because to its
proximity to the main road and the fact that it is located in Brgy. Basak in Bagamanoc, it is a favourite hangout for both
tourists and locals. Unlike many other national waterfalls, this one doesn't need a lengthy trek to reach. You may reach
Paday Falls after a short drive to Bagamanoc proper and a five-minute stroll from there. Cottages are available for rent at a
low cost. Even if you don't go swimming in the waterfalls, just looking at them is a calming experience. When in Bagamanoc,
this is an absolute must do!
Masbate
Buntod Reef Marine Santuary and Sandbar - The Buntod Reef Marine Sanctuary and Sandbar, one of Masbate’s
most prized attractions, will serve as our first stop on our exciting journey. Masbate's primary claim to fame in terms of
natural attractions is this one. Buntod, with its rich marine life, clear seas, and golden sandbar stretching for a full km, is
without a doubt one of the most stunning spots you'll ever see. Visitors may explore 250 acres of the marine sanctuary and
see colourful sights including shattered shells, blooming coral reefs, and an array of fish species. Naturally, guests are free to
roam the beach and enjoy themselves as well. You are free to swim, snorkel, or kayak wherever you choose on Buntod. If
you want to make the most of your trip, you may hire a cottage for the night.
Catandayagan Falls - The spectacular Catandayagan Falls in Monreal, Masbate, is our next stop. Catandayagan
distinguishes apart from the rest of the waterfalls in our nation because its waters plunge straight into the ocean. That's
incredible! Waterfalls are often located inside the interior of a mountain, with the water eventually draining into a natural
pool. Catandayagan Falls must be an anomaly then! Featuring a massive limestone rock structure and deep blue waters, the
waterfall is a very breathtaking sight. Not getting some incredible Instagram-worthy shots is a tremendous mistake.
Sorsogon
Museo Sorsogon - The Museo Sorsogon is a museum in Alegre, Sorsogon City, run by the Sorsogon Provincial

Bernardino Strait are notorious for being dangerous.
Antique
Seco Island - Seco Island is one of Antique's most scenic destinations. It is an elbow-shaped island with a white sand
beach that stretches 1.5 km and a sandbar surrounded by turquoise seas. It is ideal for anyone looking to do nothing more
than lounge on the beach or participate in beach sports. Kite surfers from Boracay go there as it is a prominent spot in the
province for the sport. The island is quite far away and can only be reached by boat, which takes about 2 hours.
Igpasungaw Falls - Tucked away in the woods of Antique is a series of waterfalls known as Igpasungaw Falls. Each
tier of the cascade has its own pool, ideal for swimming, cliff jumping, and even sliding down the waterfall. Crossing the
river and following an unmarked path is required to reach the upper tiers of the falls. Getting to the falls takes an uphill and
downhill hike of 45 minutes through agricultural and forest area, tiny waterfalls, bamboo bridges, and crossing rivers,
making it a perfect location for adventure and thriller seekers. The falls are an incredible natural wonder and an exciting
new travel attraction for the province.
Capiz
Mantalinga Island - Let's travel to the enchantingly lovely Mantalinga Island after our incredible time at Baybay
Beach; it's just about a kilometre away. Mantalinga Island is plainly visible from Baybay Beach, so it may be included in any
of your picturesque beach shots. This little yet captivating island has crystal clear seas that are home to a rich marine
ecology that is ideal for water sports like snorkelling and scuba diving. The island of Mantalinga is also known as the
"Goodluck Island" among local fishermen. whether you really want to know whether it's true, there's just one way to do it.
Go, then!
The ruins of Alcatraz - One of the best things to see in Roxas City, Capiz, are the ruins of Alcatraz. It's possible that
the first thing you'll think of when you see this fascinating landmark is that it looks like the fortifications of Paradis Island in
Attack on Titan. If you're into mainstream culture, then, yes. One of the influential families in the province allegedly planned
to use the building as part of a resort. The walls have an air of genuine antiquity and nostalgia since the project didn't go
further and they were left abandoned for a long time. Also, it's in close proximity to the shore, making it an obvious photo
stop for passing vacationers.
Guimaras
Ave Maria Island - We'll be travelling to Ave Maria Island, which can be seen from Alubihod Beach, now that we're
here. The island's beach is made of fine, white sand, and the surrounding sea is extremely pure. If you're interested in
seeing a wide variety of marine life, you might try snorkelling in the region. But if you'd rather kick back, soak up some rays,
and work on your tan, Ave Maria Island is where you need to be. Since this island is often only included in island hopping
tour packages, I would recommend that you make the most of your time here since there are no cottages or
accommodation facilities on the island.
Guisi Lighthouse - And there you have it! A journey to Guimaras would be lacking without seeing the famous Guisi
Lighthouse. One of the most famous sights in Guimaras, this Spanish colonial lighthouse has been helping sailors navigate
the treacherous waters of the Iloilo-Guimaras Strait since the 18th century. If you're want to increase the ante on your
excursion, I recommend making the 15-minute ascent to Guisi Lighthouse's observation deck. Believe me when I say that
the beautiful vista of the whole beachscape and the Iloilo-Guimaras Strait is well worth the effort. Visiting the abandoned
Guisi Lighthouse is another great opportunity you shouldn't pass up.
Ilo-ilo
Miag-ao Church - The Miag-ao or Saint Thomas of Villanova Church, constructed in the nineteenth century, is
recognised as a cultural treasure by UNESCO. The sculptural relief carvings on the exterior of the Miag-ao, one of the oldest
and most resilient Baroque churches in the Philippines, have survived to the present day. The Miag-ao Church is widely
regarded as one of the most significant buildings in the city and the nation due to its ornate, historically accurate
architecture. The region has been influenced by many different civilizations, including Spain, the United States, and China,
and this may have contributed to the novel's distinctive tone. The church is conveniently located about a half-hour's drive
from Iloilo City.
Garin Farm - Located in San Joaquin, Iloilo, the Garin Farm stands apart from the crowd by placing an emphasis on
agriculture while also functioning as a vacation spot and a place of worship. Insightful agricultural practises, a farming guide,
recreational opportunities like a zip line, kayak, fishing, golf cart, pedal/rubber boat and swimming pool, and finally, its
Pilgrimage Hill that sits atop 456 stairs will all contribute to a fulfilling experience. You could spend days at the Garin Farm
and yet not see all there is to see or learn everything there is to know about how to maintain and preserve the natural
beauties that are there.
Negros Oriental
Manjuyod Sandbar - Another stunning location in Negros Oriental is Manjuyod Sandbar, a vast and lengthy expanse
of sand that vanishes entirely at high tide. Manjuyod Sandbar is great for a fun outing with a large group of people or for a
couple's getaway. At low tide, the sandbar is exposed, revealing starfish and seashells; at high tide, the sandbar disappears,
