Let’s bring you back to the 90s where you can just bring a pretty blanket, your snacks inside a native basket and set up a picnic on the grass with your loved ones. Bask under the shade of majestic Acacia trees that are planted everywhere in this area. Kids can run around freely, feed koi, watch birds, and just slow down. Dine al fresco before heading back to Manila. Let Nuvali give you a refresh.

Ever heard of Maria Makiling? Way before Te Fiti of Moana was introduced to the big screen, us Filipinos have our very own “diwata” or goddess who is the namesake of this beautiful volcano. Easily seen from different parts of Laguna, Mt Makiling is for hikers and bikers who want to enjoy breathtaking views, be enveloped by trees, and just go back to being one with nature.

Legend says that Maria Makiling disappeared because she was gravely disappointed by humans’ misuse and abuse of her gifts. Take heed and respect your trek should you visit this beautiful space.

Plus points if you happen to visit during their week-long Liliw Gat Tayaw Tsinelas festival. Be surrounded by a parade of colors and see these artists who masterfully craft these footwear for all of us lucky customers.Pagsanjan Falls

Have you ever been beside a waterfall? It is silence and loud noise at the same time, harmony and chaos combined.
