Aside from old churches, Bulacan also holds pieces of nature’s treasure. In Brgy. Talbak, Doña Remedios Trinidad, Bulacan, a piece of it exists- the Verdivia Falls.

Verdivia is a hidden beauty. We hiked and crossed rivers for an hour an a half before we were rewarded with its serene splendour. The drizzle was a blessing. It made the hot hike tolerable. Raindrops on our face and cold waters on our feet, oh that was refreshing!

By the falls, the rest of the day was spent on cooking , eating on banana leaves, climbing the falls, swimming and picture taking. Read More: http://shugarissweet.blogspot.com/2013/03/verdivia-falls.html
