Activities in North Luzon

RG Jar
You can visit a couple of pottery factories on Liberation Blvd, near the corner of Gomez St. The 50m-long kiln at RG Jar, which was made in 1823 and can hold nearly 1000 jars, is a wonder to behold. A resident carabao is employed as a mixer at RG Jar and periodically walks on the clay.

Balatoc Mines
At this abandoned mine, you can don helmet and headlamp, board an underground train and pretend you’re a miner. To get there take an Acupan–Balatoc jeepney (P28, 40 minutes) from Harrison Rd near the Burnham Hotel.
