A few weeks ago we went to visit the Parish and National Shrine of Saint Padre Pio in Santo Tomas, Batangas. We still have more hours to spare so we decided to take a side trip to Lake Sampaloc in San Pablo, Laguna.

Lake Sampaloc

Lake Sampaloc, one of the Seven Lakes of San Pablo, is truly a beautiful sight. Its calm waters mirror the sky, creating a peaceful escape that’s perfect for relaxing, picnicking, or even boating. Beyond being a favorite for nature lovers, the lake has deep cultural roots in the local community.
