Submitted by eric on Wed, 04/06/2022 - 09:55
Description

The majestic Pinsal Falls, also known locally as "Twin Falls" because of its twin cascades of water, is known for its fascinating origin myth similar to that of Adam and Eve's. The twin falls descend from a whopping 85 feet high. One of its key features is its largest natural pool, which is called the "Tugot ni Angalo" ("Footprints of Angalo"). The origin myths say that the natural pool was formed by a man named Angalo while he was out in search of his beloved, Aran.
