A name coined from the phrase "mataas na bundok" (high mountain), Mount Manabu is a preferred hiking destination for beginners. It is especially popular among pilgrims during Holy Week, who make the journey through relatively leisurely green vistas all the way to the peak where a white cross is planted. The peak's marker and views aren't the only thing to look forward to - the local coffee in the villages along the way are also most excellent.

The Montemaria International Pilgrimage & Conference Center's key feature is the Mother of All Asia – Tower of Peace, which is the tallest statue of the Virgin Mary in the whole world. Standing at 98.15 meters, the towering structure is even bigger than the Statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and the Statue of Liberty in New York, USA. The statue is perched on a hill that overlooks Batangas Bay, while the township also has amenities for conferences and religious gatherings.

Taal Heritage Village is located in Batangas province, Philippines. It is known for its heritage structures dating from the Spanish colonial period, some of which were converted into museums, galleries, gift shops and more.
