If your idea of relaxation is taking time away from your exhausting weekday routine, you can always consider camping out on your free days. Just on the outskirts of Metro Manila, you can head on over to Paninap Farms, a farm, camping ground, and restaurant in Tanay, Rizal. See more photos of the farm resort below.
Paninap Farms is a four-hectare family-owned farm resort on the banks of Sampaloc River in Tanay, Rizal.
The name is a portmanteau, a combination of "pili," a nut-bearing tree, and "paninap," a Kapampangan word for dreaming.
Hence Paninap means "dream of pili."
What's also attractive about Paninap Farms are all the things considered as a luxury when living in the concrete jungle of Metro Manila.
Including wide-open spaces, fresh air, fruit-bearing trees, wildlife, mountains, and the proximity to a river.
Of course, there's food!
