I was in Quezon Memorial Circle this afternoon and I chanced upon this mini amusement center currently being constructed inside the big Quezon City landmark.  This new attraction at the QCMC showcases thrilling rides like the Wild Wind.  This is actually like the Space Shuttle of Enchanted Kingdom in Santa Rosa, Laguna.  It is a modified form of the traditional roller-coaster.  There are also rides for the little ones like the usual water bump cars.  And the horror rides which I will dare not ride because I do not have the kind of heart that can withstand intense fear.   While I laud the Quezon City government for this endeavor of providing a small amusement park for the residents of Quezon City so that they do not have to go all the way to Star City or Enchanted Kingdom to be able to experience the different rides, I can't help but feel dismayed over the changes in the scenery inside the memorial.  I frequented the place way, way back whe...

Nagcarlan is probably one of the towns in Laguna that is earning some attention now because of the  historical landmark that people are gradually learning about.    It is the Nagcarlan Underground Cemetery.  It is probably Nagcarlan's equivalent to the hanging coffins of Sagada.   We Filipinos seem to have a fascination for cemeteries or coffins.  There's also the Sunken Cemetery in Camiguin that tourists may view and include in their travel itinerary.   The underground cemetery in Nagcarlan, is part of what was originally the Catholic Cemetery of the town.       There are three areas to see.  The crypt which is found within the "kapilya" or chapel.  There is a passage on the right side upon entering the chapel in order to go down the  underground cemetery. And then there is the external cemetery, which is more like a burial wall, and the chapel.  The cool part is that, the facade of the chapel w...
