If you are looking for a budget hotel near burnham park, then i recommend Holiday Park Hotel. Oh, i just want to make this post clear, this is not a PAID POST. This is to help you my readers to find a great accommodation while Baguio City.<br />
<br />
Holiday Park Hotel has very nice rooms, good price, free brewed coffee and very accessible. The hotel is nicely situated near Burnham Park and other tourist destinations. Transpo is also no problem because of it is very accessible.

A very nice place, clean and very courteous and attentive staff. Very cozy, elegant room. The room was cold even if i did not open the aircon. Key card is also used so i feel safe already. The room is well kept, very clean, good LCD TV.<br />
<br />
Holiday Park Hotel has many positive feedbacks/reviews online so I definitely recommend it. <br />

The unforgettable and most powerful volcanic eruption of the 20th century transformed Mt. Pinatubo into a one of the country’s most beautiful travel destinations.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>How to get there: </b><br />
<br />
From Manila, take the North Luzon Expressway. Exit Dau toll gate for you to take your rented vehicle (meeting place is usually at the Clark main gate), otherwise straight to Sta. Ines toll gate. From there, take the MacArthur Hwy to Mabalacat enroute to Bamban and Capas in Tarlac towards north. When you reach the marketplace in Capas, take a left turn to Brgy. Sto. Rosario and negotiate the 22-km. countryside road passing along barangays Aranguren, O' Donnell, Sta. Lucia, Patling and finally, the last frontier which is Brgy. Sta. Juliana - the gateway to the crater of Mt. Pinatubo. Travel time from Clark to Sta. Juliana takes about an hour and a half. From there, you'll drive along O' Donnell river for an hour and then trek on foot for two hours up to the crater (and back the same way).<br />

Pinatubo AdventureLast year, we went to Mt. Pinatubo and it was really a great experience. Out adventure was a combination of one hour 4x4 ride, a visit to Aeta village and a 30 minutes trekking.<br />
<br />
We went to Sta. Juliana at around 6 in the morning and registered at the Pinatubo town Spa. Since we were eight in the group, and they only allow 4-5 persons per jeep, we arranged for two guides and two x4x jeeps.

<b>Bayong</b> probably is the most weaved pandan product from Luisiana, it is more commonly known in Luisiana as balulang.<br />
<br />
Pandan weaving is the main source of livelihood for most people of Luisiana. It’s been considered a family tradition of the locals as this activity is done by almost everyone in the household and has been passed on from one generation to the next.<br />

<b>Imugan Falls</b> is one of the most famous falls in Nueva Vizcaya. It is located in the province’s southernmost town, Sta. Fe. Imugan Falls is a 35-foot spring waterfalls flowing between two mountains. It is so called a hidden sanctuary since it will take you seven kilometers of unpaved road from the national highway, and an additional one kilometer hike from Brgy. Imugan.<br />

I saw several pictures of this festival before and I was really amazed by those colorful giant balloons. So, I replied YES!<br />
<br />
Since we rented a van, we easily arrive at the venue as early as 4:30 a.m. There were already a lot of people in the area but we're all heading in one direction--the entrance gate.<br />

See early morning and late afternoon balloon flights, exciting aeromodelling demonstrations, ultralights, and fixed-wing aircraft competitions.<br />
<br />
I heard that the 2013 Hot Air Balloon Festival will be held on February 21 to 24, 2013 at the Omni Aviation Complex at Clark Philippine in Pampanga.<br />
<br />
Now, maybe your question is that, where to buy ticket? Tickets are available from Clark Subic Marketing. Just call 0917-392-3759, 0928-504-6769 (Numbers are from clarkmarketing.com) , or you buy your ticket at the entrance gate during the event.<br />
<br />
It’s another weekend of everything that flies!<br />

When a friend learned that I`m in Cebu City, he texted me and asking for some pasalubong. So, I made sure that before my flight back to Manila, I went to Taboan market, the country’s most popular source of danggit and other kind of dried fishes.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Danggit is a salted dried fish that is well loved by Filipinos. It is usually fried and served with hot rice and tomato. Others dip it with vinegar, garlic and siling labuyo.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Danggit and other dried sea foods are sold at Taboan market at PhP 400 – 700 a kilo depending on the season and your ability to negotiate or tawad. </div>

Yes, we’re going inside the cave that we frequently visited when we were still students. Minalungao was one of our hiking destinations when we were in college.<br />
<br />
Before we started our second day (<a href="http://e-pasyar.blogspot.com/2012/11/minalungao-nueva-ecijas-hidden-paradise.html" target="_blank">you may want to read about our first day in Minalungao</a>), we made sure that we had a heavy breakfast--from our camp, we have to walk, climb and cling on rocks today so we need a lot of energy to rich the cave.<br />
<br />
<b>Second day adventure begins... </b><br />
This time we decided to use the newly constructed stairs...<br />

The cave is no longer as beautiful as when I first visited it more than 10 years ago :-( However, i can still rate it seven out of ten. The natural beauty of the cave maybe fading due to some human activities but the place is still great and it felt so good to be there.<br />
<br />
We leaf the cave after enjoying the ambiance and countless picture takings. So, it`s time to go back..and while on our way back to our camp we enjoyed some more picture takings.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
Generally, our two days trip to Minalungao was really good. We enjoyed chatting to local folks, we enjoyed camping, swimming to clear water, caving and off course, the picture takings :-)<br />
<br />
With its enchanting landscape, rock formations and deep green water, i might say that this is really a Nueva Ecija's hidden paradise. Its natural beauty should be kept and protected so that our next generation would see and enjoy it too . <br />
<br />
This ends our trip to Minalungao. It`s time to go home. ..and we took nothing but pictures :-).<br />

We arrived at Minalungao National Park (after almost 3 hours of traveling) at around 1:30 pm. We`re all quite hungry and craving for some lunch. So, we gathered several pieces of firewood and immediately assembled our 'improvised stove using indigenous materials.<br />
<br />

<br />
While we were cooking, I noticed a number of kids playing by the river so I grabbed my camera and approached them.<br />

Good thing, we brought our own provisions because there are no restaurants in area. Although, in not so distant, there is a small sari-sari store to buy some candies, canned goods, rice, and other basic commodities.<br />
<br />
After we ate our lunch, we're ready to roam and feel the beauty of Minalungao.<br />

After exhausting but very exciting day, it's time to rest.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
We managed to set up our camp before darkness filled the place. There are no accommodations in the area so bringing a tent is really a great idea. This place is ideal for those who are looking for a budget (pang masa) travel or eco-tourism destination. That night was calm thus giving us a chance to feel and experience the natural beauty of Minalungao.<br />
<br />
Minalungao National Park offers pristine river, spring, [spacious] cave and unique geological features characterized by breath-taking rock formations – an ideal place for soul searching and communing with nature. Truly, this is Nueva Ecija's hidden paradise.<br />
<br />
Minalungao National Park is located at Sitio Minalungao (15 km east of the town proper), Barangay Pias, Peñaranda, Nueva Ecija (Philippines).<br />
<br />
That's all for now. Next post will be our day 2 adventure.<br />

Last week, I was given a chance to visit the beautiful town of Vigan. Thanks to our research project.<br />
<br />
I heard of these life size dinosaurs before, so I took the opportunity to also visit the Baluarte zoo. Aside from the Heritage site, Baluarte is a must-see attraction in Vigan. It offers a mini zoo and a resort complex that lies in hectares of land, and a butterfly farm.<br />
<br />
According to <a href="http://www.chavitsingson.net/baluarte/general-info.html">Baluarte's website</a>, Baluarte is 80 hectares of gently rolling terrains, hills and mountain sides, the structures of facilities and amenities, its phases of construction is in its best possible realistic and natural habitat for good and sound animal care.<br />
