    Cancalanog And Cambais Falls: Chasing Waterfalls In Alegria

    Waterfalls, such as Alegria’s Cancalanog and Cambais Falls, are an absolute godsend for hikers and travelers like me. Whether it’s a hike up the mountains or a sightseeing trip in a quaint remote town, a plunge in a refreshing waterfall is, for me, the icing on the cake of every outdoor adventure.  Awe-inspiring and simply wondrous, waterfalls are also such a mesmerizing sight to behold and an impressive natural wonder that exudes a rather relaxing feel.

From elaborate Renaissance carvings to a lush and eye-catching maze garden, Capilla Santa Ana indeed gave us a plethora of striking sights and snaps. But, we didn’t travel all the way to the city of Toledo, just to take a short visit around this sweet treasure trove. Just like any of Team Bang’s escapades, we did have a side trip in mind to wrap up our Toledo city adventure. And this time, it was the sprawling and wonderfully weird Biga Pit in Lutopan.
