Album Info:

Two and a half hours south of Manila is the quaint and historic Villa Escudero; set amidst a pastoral grove of coconut palms, verdant fields and mountains to bring one back to the days of the old plantation life. Highlights of the tour are a museum of historic, religious, pre-Hispanic and World War II artifacts. Carabao-drawn carts transport picnickers to a man-made waterfalls where lunch is served on tables set over a flowing stream. Then it's off to the pools for a refreshing cool down. On weekends, a cultural show of dances and songs which incorporate the different geographical cultures in the Philippines is presented to stunned visitors. There is also man-made lake intended for a small hydroelectric power plant for the electrification needs of the plantation. Visitors can use bamboo rafts to further explore the lake.

    • ..the depth of field of this photo is truly amazing giving the viewer not only a sense of the length of the lake but its mid-day serenity...(i've taken a bamboo raft on this lake and i could almost feel the thick humidity on my forearms!)
