People park is one of the most popular at this day i am proud as a Valenzuela citizen have our own park. People like it where you can see many people walk around, jogging, zumba corner and etchetera. The most attractive is the Fountain on front of it and its a relaxing time when you see it. Try to visit for you to know.

SM Center Sangandaan will serve as a good hangout in Caloocan.Especially when the people will like to buy something and no need to go to other place with crowded people.

Well I run/climb the Mountains and trails but its always hard for me to go to any Mountains outside the metro but when I tried running @UP Academic Oval it was for me one of the most precious location here in Quezon City where you can run with fresh air, a dedicated lane for runners and cyclist, a friendly and affordable stores. If you wish to go on extreme running UP also has alot of trials that you can run in to :)

For a small fee we gained access to a wealth of information on the role of the Augustinians in bringing Catholicism to the Philippines and to Manila in particular.
The exhibits are housed in rooms off the cloisters surrounding a large, peaceful courtyard. The former Sacristy, for example, where priests used to dress for Mass houses enormous and beautifully carved chests of drawers that were one used to store vestments; the former refectory where the priests shared communal meals has a long table set for a meal as well as other related exhibits.
The walls of the cloisters contain murals and paintings. Temperature-controlled galleries house precious religious exhibits such as statues and richly embroidered vestments all of which are carefully documented or labelled.
Information boards tell the story of the monastery through fires, earthquakes, pilfering by the British and the destruction incurred at the hands of the Japanese and the United States during World War11.
One could spend hours here.

The place believed to be healing illnesses
The place is big enough to accommodate pilgrims and believers, there is designated area for those with cars. They also have this open chapel with barriers and benches facing the mama Mary with wishing well.
Though I noticed, there's this place- bukal ng kalusugan" small and narrow for a huge number of people.
They have also a place to commemorate Pope John Paul(P10.00 entrance) with his replica and other memorabilia, his life story when his growing up.
The church is quite serene. With big statue of saints and well maintained.
Worth the visit.
How to get there:
I came from Malolos, so I rode a jeepney going to Marilao P50.00 then alight at the highway going to Divine.

This museum and courtyard Gardens is one of the oldest stone churches in the country, having survived 2 fires and 7 earthquakes.
Reviewed By sabi0james - Manila, Philippines
Located inside the historic Intramuros, this church was only 1 of 4 churches built during the Spanish era designated as a world heritage site by UNESCO. One cannot help but admire the beautiful interior of the church especially the ceiling. The baroque architecture can be evidenced by the church's exterior.

8. University of Santo Tomas

This is the oldest university in Asia, founded in 1611, and is one of the world’s largest Roman Catholic universities based on enrollment.
Reviewed By danerobb - Alberta, Canada
Of course most universities in the Philippines look and feel impoverished and rundown looking, but UST is one of the better universities in the country, although behind the likes of Atenao, UP and La Salle.
But it is one spot to come to get out of the traffic fumes of Espana Street, where the filth and bustle slows down to a crawl.
As with so many places in the National Capitol Region, it could form part of your experience of the ways of pinoy and the way that they structure their lives to meet expectations of family and society.

Former Philippine archbishops are buried in a crypt under the altar of this majestic Cathedral, whose 1951 completion commemorated the the five versions that came before it.
Reviewed By sabi0james - Manila, Philippines
Visited the Cathedral recently and still in awe of this imposing architecture. Being the major church in the Manila diocese, this Cathedral has a special place to catholics. This Cathedral has always been a favorite church for weddings. Although, the ceiling seems bare in comparison to other churches, the huge interior is imposing enough.

There is a pool last time I was here. Not sure now. There was a construction for a manmade lake for boating?
