Manggahan festival @ Guimaras Island and its sweetest mangoes

Last summer, together with my friends, we went to Guimaras Island for Manggahan Festival.  Guimaras is the center of the sweetest mangoes of the world.  Every year, the month of May ( second week) Manggahan Festival has activities till it will last for a week celebration. You can see different sizes of mangoes, products made of mangoes and some agricultural products produce in Guimaras Island. There are many visitors from different country to witness the amazing festival.

I bought some mango and delicacies for my children. On that day there is a live concert of celebs while you're having a lunch.  We're not able to watch because we went to the beach.. On my next post will be the white sand beach.. See yah around.

My getaway summer holiday

My  friend last May had her vacation in Philippines, it’s a two weeks’ vacation.  She wanted to relax from her works, beside herself takes her holiday and wanted to be with us and explore the enchanted island of Carles, which is the Isla de gigantes sur. The place is not accessible, it is not convenient to visit, and tourism is largely undeveloped.  It is located on the Northern part of mainly Iloilo, Philippines, to those who have already explored the area, rewarded with surprising  experience the amazing Sceneries of the virgin island, white sands, the extraordinary land formation and marine life.
