The Kamay ni Hesus Shrine at Lucban in Quezon is a sought-after pilgrimage destination known for its miraculous healing masses and the steep hill that leads to a majestic Risen Christ statue. Given the Philippines’ rich Catholic culture, it is no surprise that thousands of devotees flock here, especially every Holy Week to repent, reflect, and give thanks.
If you are planning to have a blissful out-of-town escapade, consider driving down south to this holy and peaceful sanctuary.

Been here a couple of times before and each time is as blissful as the previous one.

@Paocz28 it takes some effort. The view from the top is exceptional though!

@allen0187 Correct! And going down is a little easier as you feel like relieved and refreshed.

I don't know much about the Philippines' historical sites. But Filipinos I know are so proud of their beloved heritage.

@Paocz28 Disappointingly, I don't. I sure am missing a lot for not knowing this beautiful Filipino lady. :-( I'll look her up. Thanks.

@everwonderwhy She's Australian but she married a filipino guy. She's very pretty and learned the local language very easy.
