Enjoying Every Corner of Taal and Their Pailaw: The Shining Pandas and Butterflies and the Heart-Shaped Lights on the Road

Looking at my gallery and seeing all the photos I took during my visit with Mama in Lipa, I can't help but miss the short time I spent in there with my little brother. Is this how it is when you taste the goodness of being an adventurer once while visiting a place after a very long time? Now that I have a taste of it, I have this urge to do it again and just forget about everything and just go with it. But oftentimes, I have to stop myself from craving it because I know I won't let myself do it even if I want to. I'll hurt myself more if I imagine myself doing it. But I guess I am a masochist, still thinking about it from time to time. Lol. Aigooyahhh!

This was during our visit in Taal Basilica. Below it was the beautiful Pailaw, and there were a lot of visitors too that time. Once you get down from the Taal Basilica or once you finish the mass, you can hang out below and enjoy the view. I think this place is enjoyable at night because of the colorful lights in the whole surroundings. I enjoyed the place too, looking left and right. I am not sure if this place is still the same today, but maybe, because it's near the church. I'm just not sure though ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ.

You can also see this tall statue in there, there's a "Sociedad Ga Patria" written at the back of the statue as well as some names and when it was founded. Another thing is the plants, which are also adorned with lights. I saw lots of people and even a whole family taking a photo in there.

And here's more, look at all those cute pandas, butterflies, and even ducks. They have lights inside, so they are really shining. It actually looks so cute. A lot of people are also taking turns to take photos in there. As for me, taking photos of that place is my priority. At least I have something I can look back on, even if I'm not in those photos. UwU

And this is the entrance to their Night Market in here. As you can see, it was also designed with the lights. You can already tell that something's going on here because of those colorful lights in the middle of the road. It actually looks so pretty, right?

And on the other side of the road was this path with a heart-shaped design that you can use to enter inside. You can also take a lot of photos in there. Maybe this one is still in there until now, especially since we just celebrated Valentine's Day. I had really no idea because I'm in Mindoro now. And there's no way my brother will know it too, Lipa is an hour away from Taal.

I am really just glad my little brother brought us here. I get to experience Taal and their beautiful Pailaw. Aside from that, we had a fun food trip too. Even for a short time, I get to enjoy a night in my life in a different city. Although I like our town, still, going into other places can give us a different experience, so it's really fun to go visit other places every once in a while.

Hahhh, I miss this! Wish I could visit Batangas again with Mama and this time enjoy other places too, not just SM Lipa, Tanauan Batangas, and Taal Batangas. There are a lot more places to explore. It kinda excites me just thinking about t (◍•ᴗ•◍).
