The
artist town of Angono celebrates the feast of its patron, San Clemente,
with flourish. In a street procession, the sacred image is carried
out from its shrine, borne on the shoulders of male devotees, followed
by the "Parehadoras" (paddle-carrying devotees
clad in traditional Tagalog costumes) and "Higantes"
(giant papermache figures). A fluvial procession along Laguna de
Bay follows, after which, San Clemente is brought back to the parish
church.
This
is the biggest annual tourism show in the country organized by the
Philippine Tour Operators Association, Inc. (PHILTOA). Local and
foreign buyers and suppliers converge in this one-stop shop to explore
business, trade, market, and promote their products and services.
A
once in a lifetime experience to celebrate success for your
group.
Tagaytay
down to the lake is a breathtaking experience in a descending
narrow road that winds to a jump off point to the island volcano.
A
perfect tour package combining the rich cultural experience
of the mountain tribes of Banaue with leisure in the exotic
island of Boracay.
Marine
life is rich and plentiful in more than 7,000 islands' surrounding
reefs and coral gardens.
