    Biga Pit: A Visit To Lutopan’s Controversial And Gorgeous Man-made Lake

    A tour around the mesmerizing Capilla Santa Ana Museum was a great way to cap off a year full of life, colors and adventures. 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.

    10 Reasons To Take A Hike At Least Once A Month
