Caleruega Trip

We went to Caleruega Chapel yesterday with my hubby's family. I've been here in Caleruega many times attending a wedding but I wasn't aware that Caleruega has a lot to show us aside from the lovely chapel up the hill. There's a wedding when we arrived and the entrance to the Caleruega chapel was closed because of the wedding and that's the exclusive entrance for the guests only. So we walked ahead downhill, when we reached the gate of Caleruega the guard approached us and asks us to pay for an entrance fee of Php30.00 per adult I haggled for the 2 kids so we only paid for 3 adults. I didn't know that we have to pay for the entrance so I asked what's the entrance fee for? Good thing I asked so now I know that there's a picnic area, a pond, a hanging bridge and a walk bridge where you can take a really nice photo. Caleruega is nice place to go to on weekends for family bonding. See photos below for some of the Caleruega's amenities.

This is the entrance from the back gate of Caleruega

Upon entering, there's a cute staircase that caught my attention.

This is the Caleruega's dormitory for retreat participants.

A signage so you won't get lost

I like this sign "Closer to Nature, Closer to God" I believe this coz God is the creator of all these beautiful nature that surrounds us.
