Angono Petroglyphs

  Itching to take my 2 wheels for another ride, I embarked on visiting one of the great spots (IMO) to peek on weekends, the Angono Petroglyphs.

Let's see what I found!





Located in the rear recesses of a shallow cave in Binangonan, it is believed to be the oldest rock art inscription in our country, dating back to the Neolithic period.





Carved in rock formation, it holds a collection of 127 figural carvings engraved on the walls of a shallow cave. 


It's like entering a different era as we indulged ourselves on the rock drawings. Experts have been deliberating on whether the art are symbolic representation of the culture or if it is medicinal and religious as ancestors are said to have carved these in order to transfer the sickness of their children onto the limestone wall. For travelers craving for adventure with a touch of history, this place is definitely worth seeing!
