I would recommend St.Clements or the monastery of the Carmelites. Of course, in Guimaras, the Trappist Monastery or Balaan Bukid (where you could see a pano view of the city)

Jaro Cathedral well, it's rather a personal matter for me to be there. I always feel serene there. Maybe that's just me. Yes, Balaan Bukid is a nice place but you have to exert great effort to climb up there.

Oooh, the replica of Venus. I wonder if Pampanga copied INHS' architecture since it was there for over a hundred years.

I don't think they copied it. Remember that it was during the American colonial Era when they launched a massive educational campaign (and that includes primary and secondary education for everyone) across the islands. I think this is a Gabaldon-type...heritage professionals please confirm. And having multiple copies of its architecture all throughout the islands is not a big thing.

She is not Venus... she is Pallas Athena.

Yes you are correct. There are white goats around the vicinity.

iloilocitykid · January 1st, 2008, 02:51 PM

That's near the coastal road right?

icarusrising · January 1st, 2008, 03:00 PM

Here are some more from the same region... Western Visayas...
These are from Pandan, Antique. The Bugang River is connected to Pandan Bay. This is where I first learned how to swim as a child.

If I disappear from my grandmother's house, they'd know I'm usually by the river or the sea...
