<br />
Nature is indeed a master of Art, and the enchanted river in <b>Hinatuan, Surigao Del Sur</b>, Philippines is probably one of his master piece. For some who has doubt, it may looked liked it was photo shopped, but it isn't. Its color and beauty is unmatched in any river in the world. Its crystal clear water is one of the clearest you can find in any parts of the world, its blending with colors is magical and enchanting. Its hard to believe wonders like this hasn't yet to be discovered.<br />
<br />
This river from Barangay Cambatong was called the Enchanted river because legend has it that fairies float above the water while the elves watched them from the banks.<br />
<br />

<br />
Its also magical, because fishermen swear they have seen fish in the river but couldn't catch even a single one. There are also lots of stories of fairies appearing, a women that suddenly disappears and a lot more.<br />
<br />
The river is also a favorite among scuba divers because it is very deep and they say it is like an endless abyss. None hasn't yet to touch the river's bottom.<br />
<br />

<br />
The enchanted river is like a live painting, its color is very stunning and bewitching at the same time. I<br />
<br />
Indeed, nature is the true artist and what makes its color very artistic is still a mystery.<br />
<br />
Do you liked it?<br />

Here at <a href="http://sltrippers.blogspot.com/">SLtrippers</a> </span><span style="text-align: center;">we </span><span style="text-align: center;">will give you summer tip for your total enjoyment and relaxation.</span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Summer vacation is a <span style="text-align: center;">wonderful idea to restore and rejuvenate our body and mind. Its those rare times </span><span style="text-align: center;">where </span><span style="text-align: center;">we can bond </span><span style="text-align: center;">with our family and friends </span><span style="text-align: center;">without </span><span style="text-align: center;">worrying time, money and </span><span style="text-align: center;">work. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">Relax and take note of these tips to fully enjoy your summer vacation.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<h3>
<span style="text-align: center;">1. Do not </span><span style="text-align: center;">wear your </span><span style="text-align: center;">watch</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">By looking at the time </span><span style="text-align: center;">we </span><span style="text-align: center;">worry on </span><span style="text-align: center;">what </span><span style="text-align: center;">we </span><span style="text-align: center;">will do. For example, you look at your </span><span style="text-align: center;">watch and its 12 noon, so its usually time to eat and </span><span style="text-align: center;">when its 9pm </span><span style="text-align: center;">we usually go to bed. Chill out! leave the </span><span style="text-align: center;">watch in your room, don't do the </span>usual <span style="text-align: center;">when you are at a summer vacation. Eat </span><span style="text-align: center;">when you </span><span style="text-align: center;">want to eat, and sleep </span><span style="text-align: center;">when you </span><span style="text-align: center;">want to sleep. Its nice to be irresponsible and </span><span style="text-align: center;">worry free sometimes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
<span style="text-align: center;">2. Bring less electronic devices</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">If possible, don't bring all your electronic gadgets on a summer vacation. Don't bring your laptop and smartphone at the same time, just pick one. Using electronic devices </span>while on a trip could ruin your relaxation because you might be texting or surfing the net instead of scuba diving or doing waters sports with your friends and family.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
3. Pick a destination where ALL can have fun</h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">Everyone has different interest even </span>when we are on outdoors. For example, if one of your family or friends is not into extreme water sports, then pick a destination where you can have fun while doing your thing while he/she is having fun with theirs. Try to ask some activity where all can agree so that you can bond with them.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
4. Carry less</h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Once of the most stressful thing about traveling is carrying too much baggage. To fully enjoy your vacation you need to carry only the things that are necessary. Plan ahead of the schedule, how many days you will be on vacation, where, what clothes do you need?. Bring only those you can carry, unless someone else will do the carrying for you.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
5. Just think that it is your sick day</h3>
<div>
Too much work makes us sick, right. And what do we do when we are sick? we are lazy, tired to go to work and we let other people do the basic chores like cleaning or washing the dishes. When we are on vacation we should stop thinking about work, or deadlines. We should think like a sick person, lazy for work but well when having fun.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
6. Host a camp fire</h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If we hang out on the <a href="http://sltrippers.blogspot.com/search/label/beach">beach </a>at night we usually takes dead leaves or any wooden sticks to be used in a camp fire. A camp fire is a great way to connect with the people around you. Share stories, and experience, in that way you will know them more.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
7. Have a Popsicle</h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">I don't kno</span>w why but it feels good when I have a Popsicle or ice cream on a vacation, especially on the beach. I guess its a comfort food during summer. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
8. Plan ahead</h3>
A summer vacation should have a plan. If you have 8 people in your van, you need to know where you're spending the night. Because driving around some creepy town at midnight with hungry, whiny kids in the back isn't the funnest way to spend your time. So make reservations, or at least know your options ahead of time. <br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
9. Don't forget the Camera!</h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Your fun memories is the most important thing on a vacation and its not complete without taking pictures of those unforgettable moments. Bring a camera to preserve those precious memories together with your family and friends.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And the most important tip of all!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3>
10. Safety first</h3>
<div>
All of those tips are worthless if you are careless. Safety is always a priority in every traveler, make sure your car tire is on well condition, check the gas, make sure your vehicle runs well. Or if you are commuting, provide a compass, a map or GPS, in case you get lost. Take note all the the important numbers including near Police station telephone numbers, close relative land line numbers, or contact to the nearest Hospital. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Don't go to places where locals don't want you to go. Also follow instructions of lifeguards to prevent drowning. Keep an eye for your children, and always follow them especially if they are toddlers. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There you go!<br />
<br />
Some tips to fully enjoy your summer vacation. Remember, have fun but keep in mind that safety is first.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Have a happy summer!</div>

So here we go with our latest post for this summer.<br />
<br />
If the sun is hot, we all want to go to the beach. And if you have the right budget, most people go to boracay Island. But if you are like me, sometimes I prefer the less crowded places. In peak seasons like this boracay is very crowded, so some of us likes to look for Boracay alternative beaches which has is not too crowded, and you can have your own privacy.<br />
<br />
So, Here we go, I got some Boracay Alternative Beaches.<br />
<br />
<h3>
1. Gumasa Beach, Glan, Saranggani Province</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7f6ZQYkCG5Y/UWjgMhGqZhI/AAAAAAAACIw/TsCYK5Nrwdg/s1600/gumasa+beach.jpg"><img alt="Best Boracay Alternative Beaches" border="0" height="425" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7f6ZQYkCG5Y/UWjgMhGqZhI/AAAAAAAACIw/TsCYK5Nrwdg/s640/gumasa+beach.jpg" width="640" /></a> </div>
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">[image: http://www.senyorlakwatsero.com] </span></span><br />
<br />
Saranggani Province is not only known to be the province of world famous boxing Champ Manny Pacquiao, it it also a home of beautiful beaches. And Gumasa beach is one of them. It is located in Glan, Saranggani and can be reachable in just one hour travel from General Santos. Its beautiful white sand will let you think you are in Boracay.<br />
<br />
<h3>
2. Cuyo Island, Palawan</h3>
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gwkCHRLQezI/UWji8x9M0LI/AAAAAAAACJA/nxJHS2F36WQ/s1600/cuyo+island.jpg"><img alt="Best Boracay Alternative Beaches" border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gwkCHRLQezI/UWji8x9M0LI/AAAAAAAACJA/nxJHS2F36WQ/s640/cuyo+island.jpg" /></a> <br />
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">[image: http://tantor23.wordpress.com]</span></span><br />
<br />
If you don't like crowded beaches, then try Cuyo Island in Palawan. This tourist spot is great for relaxing and water sports. Go to Capusan beach in Cuyo, and you can experience wind surfing.<br />
<br />
<h3>
3. El Nido, Palawan </h3>
<h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2HSAKj7kLP0/UWjosklA-8I/AAAAAAAACJQ/qNftU5kUrnk/s1600/el+nido.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Best Boracay Alternative Beaches" border="0" height="425" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2HSAKj7kLP0/UWjosklA-8I/AAAAAAAACJQ/qNftU5kUrnk/s1600/el+nido.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
</h3>
The first word I could describe El Nido in Palawan is "Paraiso"!. It is a place where you can relax, scuba dive or do anything to have a relaxing vacation. If you have been to Phuket, Thailand this beach is almost the same yet cheaper and has less people.<br />
<br />
<h3>
4. Malapascua, Cebu </h3>
<h3>
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-J39v6HFnGB0/UWjp9zJuddI/AAAAAAAACJc/QFMf5871_9g/s1600/malapascua.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Best Boracay Alternative Beaches" border="0" height="394" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-J39v6HFnGB0/UWjp9zJuddI/AAAAAAAACJc/QFMf5871_9g/s1600/malapascua.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></span></h3>
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">[image: http://www.asianapearlvision.com]</span></span><br />
<br />
Located in the North of Cebu in the Philippines, Malapascua Island is surrounded with crystalline waters and spectacular coral reefs. The pristine white sand beaches are just sumptuous; a community of traditional fishermen lives in this small paradise. <br />
<br />
Malapascua offers to the travelers an ideal journey of relaxation, idleness and rich submarine discoveries including the rare thresher shark.<br />
<br />
<h3>
5. Coron, Palawan</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uKjXIfn5MwQ/UWjrC8RmZKI/AAAAAAAACJs/5I-3_c2Dcsg/s1600/coron+palawan.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Best Boracay Alternative Beaches" border="0" height="422" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uKjXIfn5MwQ/UWjrC8RmZKI/AAAAAAAACJs/5I-3_c2Dcsg/s1600/coron+palawan.jpg" width="640" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-J39v6HFnGB0/UWjp9zJuddI/AAAAAAAACJc/QFMf5871_9g/s1600/malapascua.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a></div>
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">[image: kayellaneza.deviantart.com]</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span></span>There are many beautiful bleach white sand beaches in Coron, mostly tiny and surrounded by large limestone cliffs and wildlife. Barracuda and Kayangan lakes are both stunning locations, and good for snorkeling, and the island is the ancestral domain of an indigenous tribe who are managing the island in a sustainable way and keeping outsiders at a distance and offshore at night.<br />
<br />
<h3>
6. Honda Bay, Palawan</h3>
<h3>
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Wt_tuwgoLyw/UWjsoYOK7lI/AAAAAAAACJ4/jcbJgolmlaM/s1600/honda_bay.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Best Boracay Alternative Beaches" border="0" height="480" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Wt_tuwgoLyw/UWjsoYOK7lI/AAAAAAAACJ4/jcbJgolmlaM/s1600/honda_bay.jpg" width="640" /></a></h3>
<h3>
</h3>
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">[image: www.gopalawan.travel]</span></span><br />
<br />
Among the underrated islands in the country is Palawan. Honda Bay is in the capital Puerto Princesa. Just 30 minutes from the small town centre, the bay is a revelation. One day is not enough to go around the islets like Cowrie Island, Bat Island and Starfish Island.<br />
<br />
Here, you will find yourself alone in the island while enjoying the company of fishes in nearby coral reefs. There is also the more upscale Dos Palmas Resort that has its own well-maintained coral reefs, beach and mangrove areas. You can opt for a day tour if the resort’s package rate is way beyond your budget.<br />
<br />
<h3>
7. Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

San Vicente's 14 kilometers of beachfront is being converted into an emerging tourist destination that will be the beneficiary of government spending on infrastructure.<br />
<br />
San Vicente is just like any other municipalities in the Philippines in its profile, but it is a standout with the resource it posses - its Beach. San Vicente has one of the longest beach in the Country., the beach shoreline in Barangay New Agutaya stretches up to 14 -kilometer. It is frequented by tourist of different nationalities, thus boosting also the local economy of San Vicente through tourism. Port Barton it its town proper is declared as a tourist zone.<br />

History has it that the parish of Paoay church was founded by Augustinian Missionaries in 1593 — which is why this church is in Paoay, and where its cornerstone was laid only in 1704 — is called St. Augustine Catholic Church. The church was damaged by an earthquake in 1706 and 1927. Its construction primarily was intended to withstand earthquakes.</div>

<b style="background-color: white; font-size: x-large;">San Sebastian Church</b></div>
<div>
<br />
The Church of San Sebastian is made of a steel frame and panels and is known for its distinct characteristic - that of being the only neo-gothic steel church in the Philippines and in Asia.<br />
<br />
Not known to many, Gustave Eiffel (the man behind The Statue of Liberty and The Eiffel Tower) did its metal works. Earlier churches built on this site by recollect friars since 1611 had been destroyed by earthquakes three times (1859, 1863 and 1880) before they decided that stone was too flimsy for Manila's shaky foundation. So they commissioned the steel church, who's steel parts were manufactured in the Societe Anonyme's foundry in Binche, Belgium and were shipped to Manila. On June 12, 1888, the first shipment of steel parts were brought to the Philippines. For two years, the church was assembled with local artists and craftsmen joining the Belgian firm in applying the final finishing touches on this new church of steel. The stained glass windows were imported from the Henri Oidtmann Company, a German stained glass firm.<br />
<br />
On June 24, 1890, the Church of San Sebastian was raised into the status of a minor basilica. The following year, on August 15, 1891, the all-steel church of San Sebastian was inaugurated and blessed. The interior of the church display groined vaults. Styled along neo-Gothic lines, the steel parts of columns, walls and ceiling were painted to resemble marble and jasper by Filipino artist Lorenzo Rocha and his students. True to the Gothic revival spirit of the church are its confessionals, pulpit and altars as designed by Filipino artist Lorenzo Guerrero. He with fellow artist Eulogio Garcia carved the statues of holy men and women. Trompe l'oeil paintings was used to decorate the interiors of the church.<br />
<br />
The Church of San Sebastian is a reflection of the late 19th century innovations in architecture, art and construction.</div>

<div>
<b><br />
</b></div>
The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is located about 50 km north of the city of Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines. It features a limestone karst mountain landscape with an 8.2 km. navigable underground river. A distinguishing feature of the river is that it winds through a cave before flowing directly into the South China Sea. It includes major formations of stalactites and stalagmites, and several large chambers. The lower portion of the river is subject to tidal influences. The underground river is reputed to be the world's longest. At the mouth of the cave, a clear lagoon is framed by ancient trees growing right to the water's edge. Monkeys, large monitor lizards, and squirrels find their niche on the beach near the cave.<br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A lazy Sunday, me and my friends on a beach trip, we decided to go to buri beach instead of the traditional Guinsorangan beach in Catbalogan. We first cook food go to the grocery to buy some liquor and ride a multi cab on the city terminal, the travel took about 10-15 minutes, then we experience rough roads as we are near to the destination. After riding a multicab we walked on a narrow-muddy road to the beach. After days of non stop rain the Sun finally came out. Then with my cybershot I took some pictures.</div>

BIRI ISLAND</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
'An Artists Paradise for Beauty"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Where is Biri Island?<br />
<br />
Biri Island is one island in a cluster of about 18 off the northern end of Samar. The island cluster is known as the balicuartro Islands. You will find Biri Island the most northerly, in the straits which divide the main Island of Luzon and the Island of Samar. This strait is responsible for moving nearly 70% of the water that flows in and out of the Visayas, the strait is known as the San Bernardino Strait. So you can imagine that the tidal current can be ferocious.<br />
<br />
Biri Island is subjected to some major pounding by the might of the Pacific Ocean, couple that with the fierce tidal currents and you can get some incredible natural scenery. Biri Island is blessed with natural beauty, it is a little less than 8 kilometres long and at its widest point is roughly 2 ½ kilometres.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<b>How do I get to Biri Island?</b><br />
The stepping stone into the Philippines is Manila, so no matter where you want to go in the Philippines the hub is Manila. You have a couple of options from Manila which is roughly 700 kilometres north west of Samar.<br />
<ul>
<li>By Plane</li>
<li>By Bus</li>
<li>Combination of both</li>
</ul>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-3eOsDDJVUQg/TYdgBrjXFHI/AAAAAAAAAN8/Yo1bcLqiLbM/s1600/Birix.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="378" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-3eOsDDJVUQg/TYdgBrjXFHI/AAAAAAAAAN8/Yo1bcLqiLbM/s640/Birix.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<b>By Plane</b><br />
Flights from Manila will take you to either Catarman, which is the closest to Biri Island or to Calbayog, which is on the western side of Samar to the south of Biri Island.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
You can fly with Asian Spirit. They fly to Catarman four times a week, on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. All flights depart Manila at 6:00 am.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Asian Spirit also flies direct to Calbayog, three times a week, on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, once again it’s an early departure of 6:00 am.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
</div>
Once you have arrived at either airport you need to get yourself to the town of Lavezares, which is the jump off port, to get you to Biri Island. There are numerous jeepneys and tricycles all ore than happy to take you to Lavezares, negotiate the fare before you leave.<br />
The best route is to fly to Catarman and take the short trip west along the coast to Lavezares.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>By Bus</b><br />
Buses will take you just about anywhere in the Philippines, bringing all the islands closer. Traveling to Samar island from Manila which is on Luzon is know different.<br />
The best way, is to get a bus from Manila, have a look here for information on bus transport, to port town of Matnog which is on the southern most tip of Luzon. This trip will take you about 15 hours. From Matnog you need to catch the ferry to the town of Allen on Samar. Ferries make the crossing every hour or so.<br />
Once you have arrived in Allen, get yourself into either a jeepney or a tricycle and head for Lavezares, which is where you need to be to get you to Biri Island.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Combination of Both</b><br />
Another more scenic alternative, is to get a flight to the City of Legaspi, flights depart Manila at 7:30 am. Have a look here for timetables. If you choose this route, make sure you stay overnight and get up nice and early to catch some breathtaking photos of Mayon Volcano, you truly should not miss this opportunity.<br />
From Legaspi it is a two hour taxi trip to Matnog where you can then jump on a ferry to Allen and then get yourself to Lavezares as noted above.<br />

<b>To Biri Island</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Once you have arrived in Lavezares, go straight to the town market, once there look to the right side of the market along the beach and you will see a number of <i>banca</i> boats, choose one with Biri Island written on the back, these will usually be returning to Biri Island on that day. There is a ferry that leaves at 1:00 pm but the <i>bancas</i> will more than likely leave earlier.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<b>What to do on Biri Island</b><br />
Biri Island has been blessed with natural beauty. To the north of Biri is an enormous rock formation called <i><b>Magasang</b></i>.<br />
<br />
Magasang has been carved by the tools used by nature herself. Winds blasting, monstrous waves have pounded and storms have lashed these rocks to create so incredible formations which need to be seen to be believed. Just down from Magasang is the best natural saltwater pool in the Philippines, <b>Bel-ot</b>. This has also been the location of a number of Filipino movies, it is clear to see why they have chosen this back drop.<br />
If you enjoy quiet beaches then Biri Island will definitely not disappoint you, they are gorgeous and you will find yourself on your own, that’s right no hassles from vendors trying to sell you something, which has to be worth the trip.<br />
Biri Island has also some healthy coral reefs so make sure you bring a face mask, snorkel and fins. You are not able to hire any equipment, there are no dive shops, which is a bit of a pity as I have heard the scuba diving here is awesome.<br />
There are also a number of walking trails criss-crossing the island through the tropical rainforest, don’t worry you cannot get lost as all roads end up back in Biri.<br />
As Biri Iland is surrounded by other islands why not hire a <i>banca</i> for the day, pack a picnic and go off exploring the wonderful coves, islets and secluded beaches.<br />
Fiesta, this is one thing that Filipinos know how to do and do really well. The Biri Fiesta is held on the 23rd to 25th of June, no matter where you go someone will invite you in to their homes to share a meal and some drink. At night there is dancing and general merriment in the local villages, a fun, mad and exciting time all rolled into one.<br />

Lake Danao is a guitar-shaped lake covering an area of 148 hectares in the island of Leyte, Philippines. The area around it is the 2,193-hectare Lake Danao National Park, which also includes the Amandiwin mountain range.<br />
<br />
The lake is about 15 kilometers northeast of Ormoc City and is only a half hour drive along the Tongonan national road.<br />
<br />
It was originally named "Lake Imelda" and was declared a natural park in June 2, 1972 by virtue of presidential memorandum issued by then President Ferdinand Marcos. Later it was renamed and declared as Lake Danao Natural Park in February 3, 1998 through Proclamation No. 1155 and is now protected by Republic Act No. 7586 otherwise known as the National Integrated Protected Area System (NIPAS) Act of 1992. The lake supplies potable water to at least seven towns in Eastern Leyte including Tacloban City as well as the source of irrigation for ricelands in some municipalities like Dagami, Burauen, Pastrana and Tabon-tabon.<br />

<div style="font-size: 13px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Between Samar and Leyte</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The San Juanico Bridge, part of the Pan-Philippine Highway, stretches from Samar to Leyte across the San Juanico Strait in the Philippines. Its longest length is a steel girder viaduct built on reinforced concrete piers, and its main span is of an arch-shaped truss design. With a total length of 2.16 kilometers (1.34 mi) , it is the longest bridge in the Philippines spanning a body of seawater. It is considered one of the most beautifully-designed bridges in Philippines, having been designed by renowned architects Juanito Isko Balunbalunan and Rodolfo Tokneneng Jr., once obscure architects from Tacloban City until the completion of the bridge and the fame for which it was later known.[2] The bridge has 43 spans and medium size boats can pass beneath its large main arch the top of which rises 41 meters above the sea. Designed by engineers Maxel Cayamanda, Francis Paje, Jefferson Ang, Mgyver Manzanero, Darryl Valino, Rayvin Alimagno, Myke Unangst and Rialph Guia, construction commenced in 1969 over San Juanico Strait from Cabalawan, Tacloban City to the municipality of Santa Rita, Samar, with completion in 1973.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The Candaba Viaduct of Pampanga Province which forms part of the North Luzon Expressway is longer, but being a land bridge crossing a few streams, ponds, and a swamp which usually fills in rainy weather, is less impressive.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Connecting Tacloban City on the Leyte side and Santa Rita town on the Samar side, it offers many picturesque views, especially of the San Juanico Strait with its thousand whirlpools as well as the islets of the province. It is approximately 10 minutes from downtown Tacloban City and is accessible by passenger jeepney, bus, motorcab or private vehicle.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Construction of the 21.9 million-dollar bridge was contracted to the Construction and Development Corporation of the Philippines (now the Philippine National Construction Corporation), which together with Japanese engineers conducted studies and designed the actual project.</span></div>
