Haduan Falls, Mabalacat Pampanga

Haduan Falls
Sitio Haduan Clark Airbase, Mabalacat Pampanga

 

I am not a fan of climb even budget climbs. BIOPIPS have been to Arayat and Miyamit and yet I never attempted or came to my mind to join them. I just don't get the idea of being exhausted for few hours just to chase waterfalls. Yung Hinulugang Taktak nga mag-tryk ka lang andun ka na! Haha

How to get there:
Option 1
Bring your own car. Use GPS and Ask security of Clark if where is Sitio Haduan.

Option 2 (Not Recommended)
Ride a jeep with Route 6 in Bayanihan Terminal. You ask the driver if they will pass by at gate 14 of Clark. Gate 14 will be the gateway going to aeta community of Sitio Haduan. From Gate 14 walk few meters going to jump off point. Approximately 30 mins walk.

Option 3 (Recommended)
Hire a jeepney at Clark. Any of the C-Point Balibago or Highway bound jeep can go there. Just ask the driver first if he knows Sitio Haduan because Clark is not a joke. We even ended up going to Bamban Tarlac because our driver is not familiar with Sitio Haduan. No need to walk for 30 mins going to jump-off point.

Best Advice is to Ask the Security guards of Clark. They are everywhere!! I tell you getting lost is such a waste of time. Thank you lang naman ang kapalit ng tanong.

Antipolo, Rizal

Antipolo, Rizal

"A quick budget getaway near Metro Manila"

"Kung Hei Fat Choi" long weekend getaway. Antipolo is situated in the province of Rizal, 30 minutes drive from Metro Manila in an ordinary traffic. I really don't know why Antipolo was never been the first option of people to visit in near Metro Manila, people rather go to Tagaytay or Batangas for their quick relaxation getaway from polluted and stressful Manila. What people don't know is there are several places to visit in Antipolo. You can drop by in their cathedral, museums, the so-called famous Hinulugang Taktak from the song "Tayo na sa Antipolo. . " and  some places that I wasn't able to visit in. There is also a lot of food choices and attractions such as spa and farm resort that has been on my list in my next visit to Antipolo. To top it all, it is only near Metro Manila and UV Express are available anytime in Cubao.

If you are considering your budget, you can have a budget of P650.00 (starting in a bus trip from Pampanga) and can enjoy the raw charm that Antipolo can offer. I also admire the transportation system in Antipolo. It just so convenient for those who travel by two or three that tricycle are available anywhere, the P50.00 UV express service is just so reasonable.

Mag-aso Falls in Antequera, Bohol Philippines

MAG-ASO FALLS

20kms from Tagbilaran City

Mag-Aso Falls

For my first spot on the list, Kuya naldo decided to take me at these falls. I saw Mag-aso falls on the post of Chyng Reyes on her countryside tour on this post(click here) Since it is one of the farthest spots like chocolate hills. It is not actually part of travel tours offered in Bohol but you can actually negotiate to your driver to visit the falls. It is so majestic!. While still on top, you can hear the loud noise that these falls are making. It seems like they inviting you to go down!
