We have been to this resort twice and I always make myself feel like I own this massive place like you own everything that you see. ahaha. what a life. The entire expereince here for a day was nothing but relaxing and fantastic. The meal by the falls the bamboo rafting, the swimming, the strolling, everything was just perfect. It's like living my life as a rich person in a country side. ahaha. A must visit place if you want to relax and it is only 3 hour drive away fro metro manila. I must admit that the entrance fee here is expensive but considering the experience, for me, it is worth it. Entrance Fee: 1600 per person but double check they might have changed it already.

#Villa Escudero #Waterfall Meal #Native Performance #Raft Experience #Private Pool I like museums, etc.~~~ In the museum, one of the 12 families in the Philippines, the Escudero family, from the French colonial period to the present, is explained through native performances, and riding a carriage and looking at the sculptures makes it easier to understand... War and Colonial France and Japan Personally, I thought the music was sad while riding the carriage This is a must-see course for traveling to the Philippines.
