Casa de Segunda

Reviewed By jenibeep - Lipa City, Philippines

I've actually been here years ago. I've never known such a place like this before. It's really historical and one of a kind. The caretaker was friendly and definitely she knew what's within this place.

Apolinario Mabini Shrine

Reviewed By ronnav2016 - Taguig City, Philippines

This Apolinario Mabini Shrine is the first stop of Education Tour and this is great to start the morning . We had like an hour of reminiscing history and his life. Very good for lecturing the young generation about the heroism of this guy, the visiuals, the paintings are all amazing too. Its super worth it and good that they have a tour like this in school to educate young and young at heart.

Aguinaldo Shrine

Dubbed as the House of History, the Aguinaldo Mansion is the locus of a focal point in the unfolding of Philippine history. Constructed in 1845, the original structure of the house was of nipa-and-thatch material. It was reconstructed four years later using a variety of Philippine hardwood. By the 1920s, major renovation saw the construction of the tower and the symbolic balcony of the house. It was also during this period that the house was refurbished with architectural details of nationalistic themes, masonic symbols, and art nouveau and art deco’s artistic style prevalent during the early 20th century. The house where the president lived was donated to the Filipino people in 1963, a year before he passed away. In 1964, the house was placed under the care of the National Museum of the Philippines and was declared a national shrine through Republic Act No 4039. By 1972, Executive Order No 370 transferred the shrine under the care and maintenance of the National Historical Commission

It's a very well maintained informative museum. It shows the histories of the Philippine National Hero General Emilio Aguinaldo, the history of the KKK, and the house itself. This residence was the real home of Emilio Aguinaldo. It's made of amazing selections of Philippine wood and carved and styled and displayed to fully bring out the character of early 20the century Cavite (the house wasn't built during the 19th century revolution - didn't know that). Be sure to check out to the cool escape hatches, hidden flower holders, and ammunitions storage secret doors. The guides are great too.

Villa Escudero

This resort is actually a self-contained working coconut plantation and features a museum, bamboo rafts, a rural village tour and a restaurant underneath a waterfall.

Reviewed By Ehlly - Macau, China

If you want to escape Manila for few hrs. This place is perfect. Its huge that you can rent bike go around and see different part of the place showing Filipino culture. Their highlight is the buffet while your feet soak in the flowing water coming from the manmade falls right in front of the buffet set up. Be aware a lot of people from 11am to 12:30pm. You have to wait in the line. Or else you will come a little bit late but the food sometimes don't have anymore. Food that available when I visited are caldereta, pancit, tilapya, chicken, mango with bagoong and watermelon. Other things I like to this place is the Museum, inside is so interesting.
