The province is also famous for its exotic food, tourist attractions and
fascinating festivities. Lucban
for example, is known for its
delicious longganisa and the
flamboyant Pahiyas Festival.
Pahiyas is held every month of
May in thanksgiving to the patron
saint of farmers, San Isidro
Labrador, for a bountiful
harvest. This annual festivity
has become a major attraction to
tourists as the townspeople
lavishly deck their homes with
their harvests like fruits,
flowers, vegetables and rice
grains.
One popular spot in Quezon is the mystical Mt. Banahaw near the town of
Dolores, an extinct volcano
considered to be sacred by the
local residents and a favorite
trekking destination of
mountaineers. Farther down south
are Quezon National Park and the
beaches dotting along the coastal
towns of the province namely:
Villa Escudero Plantations and Resort,
Ouan's
North Farm Resort,
Monte Vista Beach Resort,
Alabat Beach
and
Essay Beach.
Aside from their beautiful beaches, Quezon has also various selections of
hotel and accommodations in My
Home Lodging Inn & Restaurant,
Sea
Horse Hotel, Anahaw Hotel, Nawawalang Paraiso Hotel & Restaurant
and Queen Margarette Hotel.
