After visiting Clark and Comercio central. We also went to Balanga which is only just 1 hour away. We wanted to explore more of Bataan like Las Casas Filipinas, Vista Tala and more. We stayed in The Plaza in Balanga. Super loved the location. The fountain and the design was so good.  We even went ukay-ukay shopping just the night before but there’s a market and everything else that’s just walking distance.
