PHILIPPINES 2009: PAGSANJAN FALLS, LAGUNA 팍상한폭포, 라구나 필리핀

Image
Pagsanjan falls is famous water falls in the Philippines and this is one of the major tourist spot in Laguna and the most popular way of reaching the falls is through the Shooting the rapids boat ride, which originates from any of the resorts along Bumbunga and Balanac Rivers. Two skilled and licensed boatmen takes passengers on wooden or fiberglass, long, narrow canoes to the falls, which could take more than an hour of paddling upstream depending on traffic and water level.  The journey takes passengers through the narrow and verdant Pagsanjan Gorge lined with huge boulders, rocks and small waterfalls.  The ride upstream ends in a natural pool below the falls where an optional raft ride takes visitors through a curtain of cascading water to the Devil's cave behind the falls.  The return trip called 'shooting the rapids' is a thrill ride through fourteen rapids as the skilled boatmen maneuvers the boat through the narrow rocks as it head downstream.
