Today is the 15th of May, it's the Pahiyas sa Quezon. No, I didn't go there today. The last time I enjoyed the festival was in 2010. Although the town of Lucban in Quezon province would only take a 2.5 to 3 hours road trip from Manila, the festival has grown so much popular that going there on the day itself is a traffic struggle. Sure there's the option of booking a place to stay, but that too is tiresome. If you would stay inside the town, you have to make your reservations like 6 months or earlier to get a proper accommodation. It's not anymore like before when we thought of Pahiyas and would like to join the feast, we just drove-in hassles free. I actually miss this rustic festival which is one of my favorites here in our country.
For now you could join me, look back to the Pahiyas-es I had been :
See you in the future Pahiyas :D
Happy Pahiyas to Lucban Quezon !!!
Pahiyas is one festival i would like to attend but the traffic and accommodation have discouraged us from pursuing it.
ReplyDeleteOne time, we will surely go for pahiyas.
