2025 Pilar Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#CelebrateWithTrip Taking a private vehicle to Brgy. Liyang, Pilar, Bataan on my way to Morong, Bataan is about 2 1/2 hours from Manila via NLEX/SCTEX and exit in San Fernando Plaza. Then take Olongapo-Gapan Road reaching Layac junction and continue to Roman Superhighway and turn left to Liyang Elementary School until you reach "DUNSULAN FALLS". For a side trip, it was refreshing to see a 15 ft high water falls surrounded by forest and gardens. A nice stop because it has picnic tables, comfort rooms, and a tree house. Of course, don't forget that there is an entrance fee of 50php, picnic table rental of 20php and if you like Tree Hopping Adventure, a 300php fee. It is managed by the Local Government so fees are important for its maintenance to protect this eco-tourism park. #mytripvlog#mountainview#tripblazers#waterfalls#ecotourism

I went to Mount Samat in the Philippines! The distinctive feature here is the cross that stands on the top of the mountain. It is a memorial site for those who died in World War II. #0yentravelautumn 📍Location: JG45+8V9, Mount Samat Rd, Pilar, Bataan, Philippines

There will never be a single gesture which can properly appreciate the gallantry by the men and womwn who fought for our freedoms. The Mt. Samat National Shrine does its best to show how we can take to heights our salute to the soldier who fought in World War 2. With great views of the Bataan and Pampanga Plains; with even a glimpse of Metro Manila out in the horizon - being here is awe-inspiring and breath-taking. While it can be a short drive up the mountain, this site can be best experienced as a walking trail from the National Road all the way to the Flag. Mabuhay and Pilipinas! #MtSamat #Bataan #Ilovethephilippines
