villa escudero waterfall restaurant Manila, Philippines

A few years ago I saw this beautiful waterfall restaurant picture in the internet and decided one day i will be there. The place is looking totally different than what I thought, there was a little disappointment about the waterfall. Basically, there is a river up there and it was man made waterfall and buffet lunch at the “Waterfalls was terrible. My advise for those who want to visit is try to bring your beloved ones and have a nice chit chat with a drink. There is a AERA Foundation museum really worth it. (basically a collection of anything and everything collected by the Escudero family for the last 100 years in a musty recreation of a church including stuffed dead animals, dead insects, religious idols & artifacts, perfume bottles, ceramic pots, national costumes from other countries, umbrellas, furniture and etc.The entrance fee for the day (975 PHP approx 20USD) included water buffalo cart ride about 5 minutes with a Filipino singer and guitarist crooning local music along the way. 

Magnum Manila, Philippines

Basically, I am a lover of magnum ice-cream and this visit fulfil my desire. The pricing range is quite expensive compare to Magnum Mid valley Malaysia but it's really worth a visit. If you're in manila for a couple of days, please don't forget to try this. (The price range rm12-rm90 @ USD 4- 30)

Mahabodhi Temple Bodhgaya, India.

(Holy place for Buddhist)

I visited this beautiful place on Oct 2011 and It was really a great experience. As a Hindu I have been to several famous temples but here it is just peace and tranquility. You can feel the peace not only in the temple but in your heart too. Try to take a circle of the Mahabodhi tree and the main temple.
