Caleruega Philippines — Attraction in Nasugbu

Traffic gets more unpredictable and it piles up in any day of the week. The influx is worse during weekends especially every payday and during long holidays. Slowdown of vehicles becomes more terrible but places like this makes all the traffic bearable. It took us 4 long hours from Manila to reach Batangas. Usual travel time is from 2-3hours.

Calaruega is a small town in Spain where our patron Saint was born. The simplistic architecture is derived from the spanish colonial.

Enter the building in the entrance gate and walk towards the garden stairs leading to the scenic Chapel. It is indeed a visual spectacle. The chapel has been a popular venue for private weddings with rates ranging from P15,000-20,000 depending on the season.

Holy Mass is open for public every Sunday at 11:00 in the morning.

Calaruega is not merely a solemn place of prayer but a destination to unwind. The other side of the fountain is a long stretch of road for the Station of the Cross. It is filled with blooming flowers and the picnic grounds is located downhill where people can rest. There are different sights to see. Families will find peace in the manmade falls, koi ponds, and hanging bridge. The entrance fee of P30 per head collected upon reaching Calaruega is for the maintenance of the entire property.

The location is easily reachable. From Tagaytay-Nasugbu Hi-way facing south, turn left at Batulao Road. Chapel is 1.5km from the Hi-way. Roads are rough but the view is simply breathtaking. There is a parking fee of P40 paid directly to the attendant. You can also travel to Calaruega through Nasugbu-bound buses and take a tricycle from...

This is a common sidetrip for those trekking on nearby peaks(Mt. Batulao, Mt. Talamitam and Mt. Apayang). But the grandeur of the place is more than enough for you to spend a whole trip in it. No doubt you'll take a ton pics. Getting there by public transpo is easy for the most part. You'll just need to take a bus going to Nasugbu. You can find them in Buendia. Just tell the conductor that you're going to Caleruega. The road going to the church is on the other side so careful crossing highway. From there you can take a trike going to the church. But during weekends/holiday/holy week, trikes are very rare. You might decide to just walk(which really isn't advisable because of distance and because part of the road is unpaved). Same thing when going back to the main highway. There's trike terminal near the place. We had to ask a few people who eventually referred us a trike driver. We paid 100 for us 3 pax. It's very convenient as always if you're in a private vehicle. There's a lot of parking spaces as well. Location is also good. It's close...
