Rizal Monument in Rizal Park.

Getty Images/Lonely Planet Images

Still widely known as 'Luneta' (its name until the 1950s), Manila’s iconic central park is spread out over some 60 hectares of open lawns, ornamental gardens, ponds, paved walks and wooded areas, dotted with monuments to a whole pantheon of Filipino heroes. As the place where José Rizal was executed by the Spanish colonial authorities, it's also of great historical significance. The Rizal Park Visitors Centre provides a map detailing some 40 sights within the park.

Rizal Park an atmospheric place to take a stroll, particularly late afternoon, early evening and on weekends. Here you'll find the Rizal Monument , fronted by a 46m flagpole and guarded by sentries in full regalia, which contains the hero’s mortal remains and stands as a symbol of Filipino nationhood.

To one side of the monument you will find the Site of Rizal's Execution ; at the entrance is a black granite wall inscribed with Rizal’s ‘Mi Ultimo Adios’ (My Last Farewell). Eight tableaux of life-size bronze statues recreate the dramatic last moments of the hero’s life. Evening light-and-sound presentations dedicated to Rizal usually take place here but are suspended indefinitely. When happening, they last 30 minutes and run every evening in both English and Tagalog.

On the other (south) side of the monument, toward Kalaw Ave, keep an eye out for the drinking fountain shipped all the way from Heidelberg, Germany, where Rizal spent time studying at university.

In the middle of the park is the Central Lagoon , a pool lined with busts of Filipino heroes and martyrs, and a dancing musical fountain that erupts in colourful explosions in the evening. Just north of the lagoon is the open-air auditorium , where the long-running (and free) classical Concert at the Park kicks off at 6pm on Sundays. There's a free Filipino rock concert here at the same time every Saturday night, while Friday nights see theatrical productions. The visitors centre has information on performances.

East of the auditorium are several ornamental gardens and the Chess Plaza , a shady spot where regulars test each other and look for new blood with shouts to visitors of ‘Hey Joe, do you play chess?’. At dawn, you'll find various groups gathered to practise t’ai chi or the local martial art of arnis, also know as arnis de mano, a pre-Hispanic style of stick-fighting.

At the east end of the park, where the National Museum is located, you'll find a large statue of Lapu-Lapu , a 16th-century national hero famous for slaying the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan; the flower-fillled Manila Orchidarium ; and a gigantic three-dimensional relief map of the Philippines .

9. Nelly’s Mystical Cave

Interior of Nelly's Mystical Cave, Antipolo

Antipolo’s reputation as a pilgrimage site extends beyond the shrine of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage with the existence of Nelly’s Mystical Cave, an Antipolo tourist spot located in Sitio Boso-boso, Barangay San Jose. Just like the famous statue of the Virgin Mary at the Antipolo church, the cave is believed to be a place with religious significance, and the story of its discovery is as enchanting as a fairytale.

According to its owner Inday Nelly, she was 7 years old when she awoke from a dream that left her with visions of a mysterious cave. A sense of duty compelled her to leave her home town in Iloilo to travel the country in search of the natural underground chamber. Eventually, she found it in Antipolo. Using a makeshift explosive, she to blew up a tiny coin-sized opening into an entrance that led to her mystical cave. Inside she found intricate limestone formations that were shaped like biblical events and religious formations. 

Today, the site may be reached through a steep set of stairs. Upon entry, you will be greeted by huge stalactites and stalagmites and a natural basin that collects dripping water from the rock formations. The water is believed to have healing properties, while the entire cave is up to 8 stories deep, with only the first floor open to tourists.

There are lighting fixtures everywhere that allow visitors to see interesting sights like glittering white walls in various corners, bell-shaped formations, and popular figures like the “Eagle Pride” and “Sheep of Humility”.

If you don’t mind hiking up a rocky cliff for roughly 15 minutes, then follow a local guide to bring you to the top of a hill located outside the cave. Upon reaching the summit marked by a life-sized wooden cross, you’ll be rewarded with a panoramic view of Rizal province and Laguna Lake.

8. Casa Santa Museum 

Santa Claus figures in the Casa Santa Museum in Antipolo

The Christmas season is the most popular holiday in the Philippines, and no other place exemplifies its significance more than the Casa Santa Museum, a place devoted to all things related to the Season of Giving. 

Casa Santa Museum is located inside Jardin de Miramar Events Venue in San Isidro Antipolo City. It features more than 3,700 Santa and Christmas themed items collected from different parts of the world, highlighting various Christmas traditions and stories from other cultures. The museum is divided among 5 various attractions, namely Santa’s Toy Factory, Balay Belen, The Grinch, Christmas Village, and Lego Wall.

Santa’s Toy Factory is a replica of where Santa’s elves are hard at work making Christmas gifts for children. It displays statues of elves creating toys from different time frames worldwide, with wall clocks reminding them to stay on schedule, while another section shows a replica of a kitchen where elves have their meals during their breaks. 

Next is the Balay Belen, a section that highlights nativity sets from various places worldwide that show different versions of the Christmas narrative. It is a collection built up through the years and collected with care for everyone to enjoy. After a heartwarming section comes an area dedicated to the popular Christmas-hating Dr. Seuss character known as The Grinch, where a life-sized figure is displayed. 

The Christmas Village is home to a collection of Christmas themed items collected over the span of 5 years, and is arranged to look like a magical Christmas from a children’s storybook. Finally there’s the Lego Wall section which depicts different events and activities before Santa’s arrival in children’s houses.   

7. Boso-Boso Church 

Front view of the Boso-Boso Church in Antipolo

Formally known as the Nuestra Señora de la Annunciata Parish Church, Boso-Boso Church is a Roman Catholic parish church located in Sitio Old Boso-Boso, Barangay San Jose. First established by Franciscan missionaries in the mid 15th century, the church is more than 400 years old, making it one of the oldest churches in the Rizal region, certainly older than the more famous Antipolo Cathedral. It lends a serene presence in its remote location, hidden as it were in a leafy area on a valley beneath the Sierra Madre mountain ranges, seemingly frozen in time. 

The ancient church is flanked by two majestic acacia trees and is surrounded by other leafy trees. There is a huge shaded courtyard in front of it while multi-colored San Francisco leaves stand beneath the trees. It has a sparse Romanesque architecture that has survived countless catastrophes, both man-made and otherwise, and therein lies its mysterious charm and ethereal beauty. 

The Jesuits took over the church in 1741 but had to leave when they were expelled from the Philippines in 1768. A secular order took charge when a devastating earthquake damaged most of the structure in 1880. It was never rebuilt and could have been lost forever in the 1930s when the residents were forced by the American administration to leave the place because a dam was supposed to be built. The proposed dam project was eventually abandoned. A fire burned down what was left of the church during the Japanese occupation, but it was rebuilt by the Camillian order in 1986, restoring it to its present-day condition.  

That the church is still around is a testament to the stability of its foundations and the unwavering faith of its Catholic devotees. 

6. Hinulugang Taktak 

The waterfalls in Hinulugang Taktak, Antipolo

For first time visitors making their rounds on various Rizal tourist spots, an Antipolo tour package wouldn’t be complete without a stop at the Hinulugang Taktak, a popular tourist spot that provides the quintessential Antipolo tour experience: it has a verdant forest, a Marian shrine, and a natural waterfall with a name derived from local folklore. The traditional story goes that back in the 15th century, a bell was thrown into the waterfall because the local residents deemed it too loud. The root word “hulog” means “to fall” in Filipino, while “taktak” translates to a large bell.

Cebu oslob whale shark watching, sumilon sandbar, tumalog falls with lunch & transfers from city, cebu oslob whale shark watching & kawasan canyoneering tour with safety gear, lunch & transfers, negros mambukal mountain resort day tour with transfers from bacolod city.

Hinulugang Taktak is located roughly 1.7 KM from another iconic Antipolo tourist spot, the Antipolo Cathedral, and is accessible via the Taktak Road. The falls is about 22 M tall and 26 meters wide. It is such an iconic destination that a local hymn of Antipolo that was composed back in 1929 mentions the park, indicating that it was already a famous tourist spot. It is now a protected landscape and the second most popular national park in the Philippines. 

It boasts of at least 11 species of trees in the surrounding area. Besides enjoying a view of the famous waterfall, the park has other recreational activities for nature lovers, adrenaline junkies, and even Marian devotees. These facilities include a public swimming pool, a hanging bridge built above a canopy of trees, a man-made spiderweb platform suspended over the waterfall, wall climbing facilities, and a meditation area with a statue of the Virgin Mary. 

5. Philip's Sanctuary 

The pool area in Phillip_s Sanctuary, Antipolo

Philip’s Sanctuary offers much more than a quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle of city living. It is also an eco-adventure mountain resort filled with exciting facilities and fun leisure activities perfect for large team-building events, family excursions, spiritual retreats, birthday parties, and as a workshop venue. It even has a chapel which is perfect for weddings and other gatherings for special occasions. 

Located in Sitio Panlilingan along Pestano Farm Road, this agro-forestry farm also hosts tree planting events to encourage the development of plants and flowers in the vicinity. It has a campsite where visitors can pitch a tent, enjoy the natural surroundings, and even build a bonfire at night. It has an aquaculture area with a pond and a river for farm-bred tilapia and pangasius fish, while an organic fruit farm is also nearby. They grow exotic tropical fruits like rambutan, guava, avocados, and dragon fruit.

The resort offers overnighters with simple huts and dorm-type places that can accommodate large groups. They offer food packages at the Breakfast Club that serves “silog” fare like longganisa with rice and a side of egg, which is much-needed fuel to help you navigate the grueling but fun obstacle courses available in the resort, which include activities involving ropes, water-based obstacle courses, and mud sliding through a huge piece of heavy-duty waterproof cloth. 

Kids and adults alike will enjoy catching their own farmed fish using fishing facilities available for rent, while those who have never seen an ostrich in the flesh will enjoy the sight of these flightless birds around the resort. Besides swimming both at the pool and the river, other fun activities include zip lining, kayaking, and riding a bike through the bike trails.  

4. Cloud 9 

The hanging bridge leading to Cloud 9 Antipolo's viewing deck

Cloud 9 is famous for its panoramic view of Metro Manila, particularly in the evening when city's shimmering lightscome alive from one of the highest vantage points among Antipolo resorts  nearby. Nestled along Sumulong Highway, Cloud 9 sits at an elevation of approximately 221 M, which explains the chillier weather.

For brave visitors who are not afraid of heights, try getting up to the sky bridge to get a rare 360 view of the city. Aptly called the 360 Point View, this hanging bridge is suspended between two viewing decks. It provides an unobstructed view of the Sierra Madre mountain ranges and city skyline of both Antipolo and nearby areas. 

The exit from the 360 Point View leads to a stairway that displays various paintings, art installations, and wood carvings made by local artists. This extends toward an area called 7th Heaven, a leafy hanging bridge adorned with flowers, with a resident monkey greeting guests at the exit. 

While the view is the resort’s main attraction, it also offers other attractions that showcase the city’s thriving local art scene as well as the storied history of Antipolo and Rizal. Upon arrival, visitors are greeted with an art exhibit that include a 29 foot long mural of the iconic image of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage along with other pilgrimage sites in the area and a mosaic of the Philippine map decorating the ceramic floor. 

Cloud 9 is also a sought-after place for weddings, conventions, and other large gatherings, with an estate that houses 7 venue halls that can host anywhere from 30 people up to 400 guests per venue, while accommodations consist of 78 rooms. Resort facilities include 2 swimming pools, a zip line, sports and leisure club, and a restaurant with a viewing deck overlooking the city.

3. Mount Purro Nature Reserve 

The pool area in the Mount Purro Nature Reserve, Antipolo

Mount Purro Nature Reserve is a family-run eco-park located near the foothills of the Sierra Madre Mountain Range, less than 45 km distance from Metro Manila by land. As an eco-park, this resort does not have a few standard modern amenities like television sets, air-conditioning, or free WIFI, and before you wonder why it’s no. 3 in our list of must-see Antipolo resorts , understand that this is precisely why people flock to this travel destination.

Mount Purro encourages guests to disconnect from a busy life, to go on a digital detox voluntarily, and engage with their surroundings. Far from being a major put-off, this ethos of environmental conservation is one of the main reasons for its popular tourist spot near Manila. It does have more than its fair share of fun outdoor activities such as forest hiking, river walking, putting up a bonfire, swimming at the pool, and tree planting.

Their cozy farm-style accommodations include cottages and cabins good for 2-4 persons, dorm room style rooms for up to 15 people, and areas to pitch a tent with shared toilets. Guests have access to facilities such as swimming pool, game room, cabanas and gazebos, and nature playscape. The resort has many open-air function areas surrounded by nature perfect for large gatherings, conventions, and team-building activities. 

It has a restaurant called Loli’s Kitchen that serves home-cooked plated meals specializing in Filipino dishes prepared from scratch, just like your typical Filipino comfort food. The dining area is located in a cozy “bahay kubo” or a nipa hut with bamboo tables and wooden furniture that sets the tone for a communal family-style dining experience. 

2. Antipolo Cathedral 

The altar in Antipolo Cathedral

The Antipolo Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church located in the Sierra Madre Mountains roughly 23 km east of Metro Manila. Also known as the Immaculate Conception Parish, the church’s major attraction is a 17th-century wooden statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary that is formally referred to as Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage or Our Lady of Antipolo. 

The black madonna is one of the most highly venerated representations of the Immaculate Conception in the country, attracting millions of devotees both in the Philippines and abroad.

Its present location was the place where the image kept on turning up after mysteriously vanishing several times. The image would be found on a tree called a “tipolo”, prompting the townsfolk to take it as a divine sign to build the church on that exact location.

The statue is believed to be miraculous, and the claim appeared to be substantiated by several successful sea voyages across the Pacific Ocean during the Spanish colonial period at the height of the Manila-Acapulco galleon trade. The black madonna served as 6 other ship’s patron saint and protector on the journey from Manila to Mexico during the 1600s. 

Annual pilgrimages to the celebrated shrine reach the highest numbers in May, a month traditionally dedicated to the blessed virgin Mary. The most avid devotees can be seen going on an “alay lakad” or a “walk offering” by traveling from from Manila to the Antipolo parish on foot, just in time to hear mass at dawn. 

1. Pinto Art Museum 

Paintings in the Pinto Art Museum, Antipolo

Pinto Art Museum is located within a sprawling two-hectare estate designed by popular Filipino artist Antonio Leaño. The artworks seamlessly intermingle with the plants and flowers in the Silangan Garden, an arboretum filled with vibrant flora and fauna. The large complex is owned by art patron and neurologist, Dr. Joven Cuanang.

The exhibit space and art museum is home to a vast collection of local art he acquired through the years, his collection beginning in earnest in the late 1980’s when he championed a revolutionary art collective called The Salingpusa. His patronage of local art saw their full expression through dedicated connoisseurship and acquisions, which continues to this day.

The museum opened its doors to the public in 2010, it has become one of the 25 most Instagrammed museums in the world, belonging to a list that includes The Louvre in Paris and MoMa in New York City. Some of the distinguished names with rotating exhibitions at the museum include Elmer Borlongan, Rodel Tapaya, Marina Cruz, Joy Mallari, and Mark Justiniani. The museum houses a vast collection of contemporary art and primitive art such as statues or images from the Ifugao region in the Northern part of the Philippines.

A new wing called Gallery 7 was recently opened. It is a space that displays the latest Filipino artworks and installations. Inside there is a museum shop, a cafe called Cafe Rizal by Peppermill, and a tattoo shop for anyone interested to wear permanent markings on their skin.

Homeless man who dug up Seattle park with an excavator has now built a cabin there

by Jeremy Harris, KOMO News Reporter

Man who was arrested for using an excavator to dig up part of Dr. Jose Rizal Park has now returned and is building a cabin and a 'gold mine'. (KOMO)

SEATTLE (KOMO) — The man who is facing criminal charges for digging up the hillside of a Seattle city park with an excavator has now returned to the site to build a cabin and claims to be carving out a 'mine’ to search for gold.

Seattle Parks and Recreation recently paid $15,000 to repair the damage done by Steven Irwin , who was charged with property destruction for the excavator incident.

Irwin allowed KOMO News to tour his new sprawling encampment in Dr. Jose Rizal Park Friday morning.

Irwin claims he has permission to build the cabin, which now has multiple generators, fireplaces, propane heaters, a washing machine, and even a treadmill.

RELATED: Seattle park restoration complete after destructive rampage with stolen excavator

“He is digging into the slopes, building structures, tearing down trees, undoing thousands of dollars in repairs,” said Andrea Suarez of We Heart Seattle, a homeless outreach group that has offered assistance to Irwin. “There’s also a risk for him being in that environment. There are smells of kerosene, propane, and gasoline - there are three different forms of fuel down here, wires everywhere. It’s a ticking timebomb.”

Park stewards and neighbors have been trying to get the city’s attention to the issues Irwin is causing for months.

“This guy is just getting away with it, and I don’t understand that. We are absolutely frustrated. We need some civility here, we need police action," said neighbor Brian Hartman.

The stewards have expressed concern about Irwin cutting down trees on the slope in the park as well.

“He’s dreaming up that this is a gold mine, that he’s mining for diamonds, and that he is going to find gold and strike it rich," Suarez said.

RELATED: Someone is chopping down trees at Seattle park encampment after city just paid to fix damage from excavator

In October, Seattle police responded to Rizal Park after neighbors called 911 to report Irwin was driving an excavator into a grove of trees. Police arrested him, and he was taken to jail and then released.

Irwin admitted he was trying to clear space for his cabin with the excavator, but now he is using power and hand tools to clear away areas for his camp.

“This is a call to action by law enforcement and to Seattle Parks and Recreation to do something. I’ve even offered to pay for his first six months of housing, and he said, ‘That’s great. I’m still going to keep my cabin in the woods,” Suarez said.

Tsaritsyno: The idyllic palace park where Muscovites escape the big city (PHOTOS)

rizal park tour

Tsaritsyno Park offers one of the most impressive examples of Russian garden design from the 18 th and 19 th centuries. Located in southern Moscow, it is just a short walk from (you guessed it!) Tsaritsyno metro station .

rizal park tour

Visitors often crowd around an enormous fountain near the park’s entrance, but you’ll find the palace towers a bit farther away among the trees.  

rizal park tour

The estate originally belonged to Dimitrie Cantemir, a Moldavian prince allied with Imperial Russia. He built a church and a wooden palace on the site .

rizal park tour

His French-style garden was designed according to the baroque architectural styles of that time and included pathways and flowerbeds that were made according to strict geometrical rules .

rizal park tour

Catherine the Great fell in love with the estate so much that she decided to buy it. At the time, English-style gardens that artistically imitated natural landscapes were popular, and so two gardeners named John Munro and Francis Reid were brought over from England to work on the estate .

rizal park tour

There’s nothing better than wandering through the forest along the winding cobblestone pathways, which are lined with antique statues and pavilions with huge pillars. As you walk, you hear the melodic singing of birds, which heightens the whole experience and takes you away from the chaos of the city center .

Monument to the architects Vasilii Bazhenov and Matvei Kazakov

Monument to the architects Vasilii Bazhenov and Matvei Kazakov

Tsaritsyno’s construction began in 1779 under the supervision of architect Vasili Bazhenov. Unfortunately, just as construction work was almost complete, Catherine visited the palace and expressed dissatisfaction with its design. In 1785, she ordered the palace to be demolished and rebuilt. This time, she tasked Matvey Kazakov, one of Bazhenov’s students, with overseeing the project .

Main palace

Kazakov designed a three-story building that he hoped would capture the glory of Catherine’s reign. However, when work was suspended for three years due to a lack of funds, the empress ordered him to alter the plans, advising him to construct a two-story building and simplify the design of the roof .

rizal park tour

Following Catherine’s death in 1796, work on the project came to a standstill once again, and the unfinished palace was left in ruins throughout the 19 th century. Local residents ransacked the place, removing window frames as well as stone walls .

rizal park tour

Between 1950 and 1980, the ruins of the Grand Palace even became an unexpected rock-climbing site .

rizal park tour

This finally changed between 2006 and 2007, when the city undertook a huge construction project to restore the park and architectural complex, bringing it back to its original beauty and splendor .

rizal park tour

The main building still contains ornate reception rooms, but the annexes have been turned into a museum.

You might even stumble upon a ballroom scene in the middle of the forest, like something straight out of a movie, except with older people gathering to dance to electro or disco music .

rizal park tour

These vast green spaces serve as a haven for Muscovites looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and find respite in a tranquil, serene setting. A lot of people come here just to lounge on the grass, play badminton or take a peaceful stroll in the shade .

rizal park tour

If you wander around the forest, you might even come across a strange sight under the treetops: a sacred site maintained by local followers of Shamanism. Here you’ll find totem poles decorated with ribbons, symbols and all sorts of offerings, such as pieces of bread, semolina or candy (which you can see being stolen from right under our noses by a squirrel in the picture above).
