PANGASINAN  

Our Province is very nice province for me because this province is very simple living.I love this province because it has many tourist spots like.

• MANLELUAG SPRING NATIONAL PARK. Located about 7 kilometers uphill climb from the highway in Malabobo, Mangatarem, the forest park declared as a National Park in 1940 is suitable for special interest activities.
• LINGAYEN BEACH. Beach facilities are found in this portion of Lingayen Gulf near the Provincial Capitol. The Veterans Park marks one of the landing areas of the Americna forces in 1945 that liverated Northern Luzon.
• SHRINE OF THE NUESTRA SEÑORA DE MANAOAG. The shrine of Nuestra Señora de Manaoag called "Apo Baket", believed to be miraculous, is situated atop a hill. the shrine is known all over the Philippines. Devotees frequent the church especially on Saturdays and Sundays and on her feasts every first Sunday of October and 18th day after Easter Sunday.
• SANCTUARIO DEL SEÑOR DIVINO TESORO.Located beside the municipal building of Calasiao, the enshrined statue, which devotees claim, grew as a "small boy" to what is now the image of Jesus Christ on the cross.
• CAPE BOLINAO LIGHTHOUSE. The lighhouse which was built by the American in 1903 on a 300 feet high promontory at the western part of Cape Bolinao still sends signals to vessels passing by the area.
• AGNO UMBRELLA ROCKS. These fern, decorated umbrella like boulders dot the beach of Sabanga, Agno. The place is about 30 minutes away from Alaminos City.
• EXTENSIVE BEACHES FROM SAN FABIAN TO INFANTA. Beautiful beaches that offer and teem with coral gardens and colorful marine life.
