Boso Boso old church

 

One of the most visited place in Tanay is the old Boso Boso church that was built in 1669. It survived the test of time it was destroyed during the Japanese occupation and was restored in 1995. Going there is to go through Marilaque highway.  


Then passing through the entrance going to Boso Boso road, during the time we went there several road constructions has been ongoing . 

The church is roughly 1 to 2 km from the main highway.




You can feel the rich history of the place, a local told me that the church is a frequently visited by tourists.





Food vendors are found within the vicinity



So when in Antipolo, try to visit this old historic church.

Daranak falls in Tanay Rizal


Rizal province has been known for spectacular attractions and leisure activities ready for their guests to ; an adventure they will never forget. And since it's just 20 kilometers away from Manila, local and foreign visitors alike would flock the array of nature spots in Rizal. They have an an art museum for art enthusiasts, enigmatic caves, historical dams, and amazing falls. One of them is this famous Daranak Falls.






Daranak Falls is positioned at the foot of Tanay mountains. It is surrounded by lush vegetation and cascading rivers and ponds. Entrance fee is P50.00 (as seen above) and they offer picnic sheds and picnic tables for family gatherings and barbecue get-together parties.
You can take a dip, swim and bond with your family and friends in their majestic waterfalls. For nature photo enthusiasts, there is a trail that leads to another waterfall. This is where the Filipino sitcom "Okay Ka Fairy Ko" had their shoots for their program. 




They have a small canteen inside where you can buy food but it's better (and cheaper I think, specially for groups) to just bring their own food.

When you need a quick getaway, have a cool dip to save you from the heat, or to simply have a chill time, I'd still say Daranak Falls is one of the nice places to go.
