The nearby province of Rizal in eastern Metro Manila is fast becoming a popular destination for day trippers and nature lovers. This is because the province is home to amazing natural wonders including some of the country’s beautiful and easily accessible waterfalls.

In the town of Tanay alone, there are numerous waterfalls perched on the mountainside of Sierra Madre Mountain Range such as Daranak Falls in Barangay Tandang Kutyo.

Sitting in a government-owned land, Daranak Falls’ main attraction is the 14-meter high waterfalls cascading into a deep catch basin that serves as its natural pool. This is aside from other smaller waterfalls situated in the area including the one across with cold and strong water freely flowing through the boulders into the same catch basin, perfect for a natural water massage.  Read More:  http://www.lakwatsero.com/spots/daranak-falls-of-tanay-rizal/

Further up from Daranak Falls is its sister upstream, Batlag Falls. Set in a dense forest, with nearby tables and cottages, this waterfall is set on a unique rock formation, with the water following its unpredictable contours. This departure from the conventional picture of a waterfall, coupled with its more serene setting, makes Batlag Falls a sight to behold.  Read More:  http://www.pinoymountaineer.com/2007/09/batlag-falls.html

It is also the fourth longest river in the Philippines next to Agusan River and Mindanao River. It is located in the Central Luzon region and traverses the provinces of Pampanga, Bulacan, and Nueva Ecija.

Its headwaters are located at the Sierra Madre and runs a south and southwesterly course for about 260 kilometers until it drains into Manila Bay.   Read More:  https://www.revolvy.com/main/index.php?s=Pampanga%20River&item_type=topic
