If you’re interested in shooting the rapids or having your banca carried by boatmen over treacherous bends in the river, visit Pansanjan Falls in Laguna.

In Annalyn Jusay’s Pagsanjan: lovelier the second time around, you’ll catch some of the many faces of Pagsanjan. Be sure to try Aling Taleng’s Halo-halo, a sweet and cold dessert to keep you cool during the summer.

Ajay reached Pagsanjan via the Star Tollway route, although if you’re in the eastern portion of Manila, you can try reaching Pagsanjan via the Antipolo – Tanay – Siniloan route.
