Wondering where Minalungao National Park is located
and what to expect with this hidden paradise? It is located in General Tinio,
Nueva Ecija, central part of Luzon. We all know that this province is well
known to its rice fields and referred as the Rice Granary of the Philippines
but not all of us know about this hidden gem of this province. This beautiful Peñarada River is bordered by
the 16 – meter high limestone formations. It has a greenish color during dry
season that made its amazing scenic views so surreal and it becomes color
caramel during rainy season. It also features a cave where in you will see the
shimmering stalactites and stalagmites.
