I arrived and started on the bottom by the cafe and worked my way up. Unfortunately this place is not friendly with disabled individuals with no elevator on site but on the map provided there is an access ramp on level 3? The wooden carvings were dope from the bed, cabinet, bench, massage chair, tobacco/lunch box holders and more! The glass doors towards the outside patio to take in the view of the mountains were perfect to weave back into the next exhibit. It's sad to see a lot of the "do not touch signs" posted everywhere which is such a distraction to the art itself so I suggest the front desk person should advise given rules to the guests before entering. I need to return with my hiking shoes next time.

Take time to visit this memorial. It could use a little TLC but whomever designed it definitely captures the significance of that raid that took place in the dawn hours of that faithful day. The rooftop memorial has an hour by hour breakdown of the events that took place surrounding a sundial design. Take a glimpse from the satellite view. This Ninja marks this historical sight as a must see!

Everything about this place is beautiful: the art, the buildings, the decor, the plants, etc. It is a very "instagram-able" worthy place. I can see why people come here to do engagement photo shoots and why they come dressed up as they model around the property. The buildings are white, Spanish style architecture that I would want to build a house like! It is absolutely beautiful. I wish this place was my own personal house. It's surrounded by such beautiful landscape which includes blooming bougainvilleas! They have cafe on site called Cafe Rizal, which is delicious. We went with the pizza and a couple of pasta dishes. Though they do have some Filipino options on the menu as well! The carbonara dish was tasty, and of course, a bit on the heavy side but that's expected with any creamy pasta dish. I highly recommend visiting this place. Anticipate spending at least 2 hours here. If you have any big bags, you will need to check it in front. There's a guard who watches all of your stuff and gives you a claim ticket.

My family and I always enjoy museums-- no matter if they're…read moremodern art or classic, natural history or science/tech; they're all good in their own way. We were finishing up a day trip in the Antipolo area and had to pass by the Pinto MODERN ART Museum. First thing I will say is this museum is NOT for senior citizens. It's a lot of stairs and awkward walking/spaces. My parents and Tias/Tios did not like that. Another negative would be the lack of air flow in the buildings. It was almost stifling in a lot of areas. And we all know that when the air is hot and sticky, the mosquitos come in droves. So even when you're walking around TRYING to appreciate the artwork, you become preoccupied with swatting the mosquitos trying to drain your blood. It was very annoying. Other than that, it's an interesting collection of MODERN art. Definitely NOT for everybody's taste. The architecture of the buildings were amazing though! We really enjoyed imagining the heyday of those houses/buildings. It can be a bit confusing navigating the different buildings; the museum definitely needs to update their signage. Especially during the dusk /evening hours, outdoor signage was greatly lacking and was frustrating many people who were trying to go towards the "exit" --and NOTE, this museum is majority an OUTDOOR/Open-air museum, with a LOT of stairs/steps; NOT good for people with mobility issues. :( The staff were friendly enough and somewhat polite; and for that, they get the 3stars. Otherwise it's an interesting experience and probably NOT for everyone. They do have an eatery on site for those who get hangry when they get lost in the maze. ;)

The museum preserved many artifacts from this horrible day in WWII history to include the latrine turned into a torture chamber. Like Dachau and Buchenwald, this museum must remain for future generations to preserve and prevent recurrence... even though it often feels today like the rest of the world isn't paying attention. There are important lessons here. That freedom is not free, that good people risked their lives to aid other humans under less than human circumstances, and that even evil can be overcome by good once people's hearts are converted. A must visit ... but one that is sobering so prepare yourself. Honor them by respecting their memory and their sacrifice that allows you today to remain free... then...pass the lesson on...

A trip down childhood memory lane is the perfect offering of Yexel Toy Museum. For the yuppies and…read morethose young-at-heart. Located inside a subdivision, the museum is quite confusing to find, but don't hesitate to ask a tricyle driver (yes, whenever I am in a small street and needs directions, I always ask a tricycle driver. They never failed me!) and they gave the directions already. Parking is not readily available so, be corteous enough to fellow motorists to park your car properly. Also, ask the house owner if you could park in front of their house. Proper decorum is a must, dear friends. Upon entering the house turned into a toy museum, you'd be envied on how the owner of the toy museum actually took care of their toys. Of course not everything in the toy museum was really the toys they played, but you would feel that sense of "I should have cared for my toys" guilt feel. Roaming around the building, you'd be amazed by the sheer number of toys the museum houses. The best part for me was seeing Optimus Prime and the overall drama of the place is that you feel you are in hanger of Optimus Prime. Yexel Toy Museum is still undergoing expansion but if you cant wait to see Baymax, Ranma 1/2, Batman, and other cartoon characters, then head to this place. It surely will make your weekend or weekday trip memorable.

There are various museums across Pampanga. Some small. Some tiny. Some historical. This seemed to…read morebe a centerpiece of those museums. It's right in the city and worked out perfectly for where we went to eat that night. When visiting any place, I crave to know the history. Out of all the museums in Angeles, I feel like this is the essential must-go. it starts at the beginning with Don Ángel Pantaleón de Miranda and his wife, Doña Rosalía de Jesús in 1796 and goes through the decades of development and settling. It eventually makes it to the Filipino-American War in the late 1800s/early 1900s. Across the street from this museum is the Holy Rosary Parish Church. That church was converted into an American army hospital at one point. There's a good viewpoint of the church upstairs. it covers WWII and the Japanese invasion. The bottom floor covers all the history ending with the Pinatubo eruption. There's a short docu-film that you can watch. Worth the watch. There's a separate room outside of the main part of the museum where they have art displayed. I'm not sure where the artists were from but it seemed like they were local to the area. I wish that area was a bit bigger but there was some great art in that room. Finally, there is an upstairs but it seems more like an event space. There are numerous household items from yesteryear. They're not really labeled or displayed in any sort of way. You can just tell they're old items. Admission is free but they do have a donation box. I dropped a few hundred pesos in and you should too. The place has a ton of information that I didn't see in any of the other places I visited.
