Day 1 - History and Gastronomy

Begin your adventure with a visit to the Freedom Park. This charming park is an ideal place to ease into the day and soak up the local atmosphere. Next, head to the somber yet significant Capitol and the WWII Memorial, where you can pay your respects and learn about the city's wartime past. Our next stop is the stunning Cathedral of Cabanatuan - an architectural marvel that's a must-visit no matter what. Now, doesn't that sound like a morning well spent? After such a morning, you must be getting pretty hungry, right? Time for lunch then. Grab a bite at the famous Edna's Cakeland where you can sample the delightful, locally famous dishes. What's better than ending your day exploring the bustling streets of Cabanatuan? Try the delectable street food, and don't miss out on 'batsoy,' the city's specialty soup. There you have it! Your first day in Cabanatuan, full of history, culture, and above all, delicious dishes!

Day 2 - Adventures in Nature

On day two, let's get ready for it... tonight you'll camp in the wild at Minalungao National Park. A gem of natural beauty that includes a river, caves and hiking trails. Your adventurer spirit might come out on the daring 1,000-step climb to the giant cross. Spend the afternoon floating down the Peñaranda river on a bamboo raft. Ever done that before? It's as cool as it sounds! And to put a perfect end to the day, delight yourself with a locally cooked meal while you camp under the stars in the tranquil surroundings. Memories made here, you'll cherish forever!

Day 3 - The Perfect Farewell

Let's make your last day unforgettable! Start off with a visit to Camp Pangatian War Memorial Shrine, a historic spot acting as a stark reminder of the city's tough past. From the past, we shift to the present, as we whisk you away to the Cabanatuan Supermarket for some retail therapy. Stroll through the aisles and find unique local products and souvenirs to take back home. Because what's a holiday without bringing a piece of the place back, right? Our last spot is the Rizal Park and Monument. A fitting farewell to the city, this place is imbued with the spirit of Philippine's national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal. That brings an end to our memorable 3-day journey. We promise, Cabanatuan will remain in your heart forever!
