Mystical Cave

During our first semester, we had to choose a place in Rizal area and promote it through a video vlog as a requirement to one of our subjects. So my group members and I had a short briefing about the places that we want and decided to go to the place that the majority of us had chosen which was the Mystical Cave or also known as Inday Nelly’s Mystical Cave at Antipolo City. Directions to the place is a bit difficult. One of the easier means to reach the place is to leave your vehicle at the town proper near the church. Parking is free in the mall near there. Then proceed to the tricycle terminal bound for La Salle Subdivision and tell the driver that you are going to the Mystical Cave.

Once there, you will need a guide since the cave is privately owned. The guide will provide a flashlight so having one of your own will be helpful as the cave is dark. Once inside, the guide will point out various rock formations which have a religious significance, some looking like images of the Christ, or of the Trinity. The water flowing inside, or dripping from the stalactites, are collected in containers for use for drinking, supposedly having healing powers, hence the name Mystical Cave.

We enjoyed our tour inside the cave. The size area was big as i have expected, dark (of course), and filled with cold air. Surprisingly, no smell of animal feces compared to other caves.This destination is good for a quick trip, being very near Metro Manila, the capital of the country. Being privately owned, the place is clean, but being a spelunking activity requires trekking and not for the unfit.

The cave has beautiful rock formations and enchanting aura. If you have third eye or sixth sense, it is a fun place to be. But this place is not for the faint hearted or claustrophobic. Afterwards, a side trip is to climb the summit of the hill where the cave is located and see  an elevated view of the surrounding countryside.
