Is anyone else interested in experiencing the Holy Week events in and around Manila? I am particularly interested in going to the Crucifixion Ceremony in San Fernando in Pampanga province on Good Friday (March 25th), but I really don't want to go by myself. I would love any advice as to how to best get there and back from Downtown Manila.
I am a 46 year old American man with a great sense of adventure. I have been to about 80 countries so far, but this is my first time in The Philippines.
there was a post a few days ago from someone said it was onj the 24th march so you might be a bit late ,probably bus or taxi depending budget
I've been to San Fernando numerous times although never to the crucifixion. Either head to Cubao in Quezon City to catch a bus or the Victory Liner Terminal in Pasay - whichever is nearest - but make sure you ask the driver if a bus heading north to Baguio/Olongapo/Iba etc stops at San Fernando as some bypass it. Cost is about P170.
