Church of San Juan Bautista

The Church of San Juan Bautista in San Juan, Tabaco City is one of the most impressive religious structures in the province of Albay. The construction of the present church started in 1864 and was completed in 1879. What makes this church unique among other Philippine churches are the stones used to build the church as they bear the distinct marks of the Masons.It was designated as National Landmark by PD. 260 on August 1, 1993.

Pigeon Point Heritage Park

There is much more to the area however. The Marine Park is about 125 acres, more than half of which is the wetlands to the south and south-east. The usable land stretches from Windhole in the North and curves to the south-west, where the entrance gate is located.Before accessing the Heritage Park, visitors will see several souvenir and other handicraft vendors as well as watersport operators who ply their trade to those in the area. Fisherfolk as well, use some of the beaches of the Park, mostly to the southwest or what they call the Swallows. Others use Windhole to the north to land their daily catch. Today green verges overshadowed by coconut palms guide visitors along the access road to the main area where modern amenities await those who would spend an idyllic day lounging on pink sunwashed sands.
