Accidental Tour on Calamba Baywalk

On my visit at the house of  Rizal’s, I accidentally landed on Calamba Baywalk. I was looking for a parking area near the Rizal’s house ng medyo nakaramdam ng tawag ng kalikasan. I kept on driving in search for a gasoline station. I also saw a sign board that the same road leads to this place. I got excited and since the Rizal’s house is still close that time, I decided to take a short look of the Baywalk.

I was excited as I go near the place because of the full view of Mt. Makiling. But when I reached the place, my first reaction is: “Eto na ba yun?

Re-visiting Rizal’s House at Calamba, Laguna

It was our college days (educational trip in Social Science) when I first visited the Rizal’s House in Calamba, Laguna. On September 11, after almost decade and a half, I got a chance to revisit the said place. Buti nalang holiday sa Bulacan.

The house is on the opposite side of this Street Mark.
The house is located at the corner of J.P. Rizal and Mercado Street. One landmark near the place is the very huge clay pot with the names of different Baranggays of Calamba.

The house is open to public free of charge (you can leave some donation) from 8:00am to 5:00pm, Monday to Thursday. You just have sign in the huge visitor's logbook.
