LIPA CARMEL: A PILGRIM DESTINATION

For the driving directions to Lipa City, Batangas, head towards SLEX and enter Star Toll and exit at Bulihan. The Monastery of Carmel in Lipa City is located along P. Torres Street, 4217 Lipa City. It is about 82 kms drive from Manila for an hour and half without traffic. I come here as a pilgrim and curious about the supposed shower of rose petals dated back 1948 where image of Jesus and Mary were imprinted in the petals. I visited the image of the Blessed Virgin Mary at the garden where she is supposed to appear and spent moment of silence. The place was declared by a proclamation as "center of celebration as National Day of Prayer" every September 12. True enough, for those tourists who would like to experience a real rest from the busy days, Lipa carmel is a pilgrim destination- a cultural and tourist attraction. It was a memorable divine encounter. Come and see! #celebratewithtrip#mytripvlog#tripblazers#pilgrimage
