Candelaria, Quezon
Spend a half‑day in Candelaria, Quezon; visit San Pedro Bautista Church and a nearby farm – no overnight needed.
Candelaria is a small commercial town at the foot of Mount Banahaw. Its main attractions – the twin‑spire San Pedro Bautista Church, Mount Banahaw viewpoints and a few agritourism farms – are clustered near Maharlika Highway, so a half‑day visit covers the highlights. Overnight stays are optional for those wanting extra farm time.
