anTRIPolo: Pinto Art Museum

This is not a normal house facade
This place is so awesome! It is quiet and vast. You can definitely spend a day in this place! I suggest that you go there with people the likes taking photos.

It will take you to another world!

The artwork they have are both contemporary and vintage. They also have artworks from the three main islands of the country.


This is a great place to take photos and relax. It will be best to visit during the weekday at around 3pm until closing. There are so many IG worthy spots.



If you look closer there are areas in the museum that may not be on the map but it has a story to tell. Based on previous photos the displayed art in this museum has changed from time to time.



I like this piece not sure why
Be ready for a lot of walking and IG worthy photos. Best to have your power bank fully charged and wear comfortable shoes. Ps, you need to leave your bag the guard house.


I would love to have something like this in my future house

If you do get hungry from all the walking and awesome artwork plus talking great photos, you can eat at the restaurant inside the museum called Cafe Rizal. We did really try it out as we were still full from the cake of Starbucks.


I like watching him walk around
I will definitely go back here! This is just a great place to think and relax. There is so many unique and fun stuff to do here too.

Backride Diaries: anTRIPolo




If you are looking for something to do on your 3-days off, you can always go on a road trip! Antipolo is a great place to go to during your off days! There are a lot of places you can visit so remember to have your itineraries ready.


You have to visit the Shrine of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage, it is a must. You can also buy your pasalubong within this area. For this trip, we went to Pinto Art Museum next.

It looks like a normal rich person's house

but inside is a portal to another place
Pinto Art Museum opened in 2010 and since then more and more people are falling in love with what it has to offer. This 1.3 hectare art museum is a great place to explore with friends.





Next stop, was not really on my list. My partner just said that we are going to another place before going back to the shrine to get pasalubongs. I was surprised to know that we have petroglyphs in the Philippines.


The Angono-Binangonan Petroglyphs is about 30 minutes from the Shrine of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage. It was discovered by accident by Carlos "Botong" Francisco in 1965.

I see a turtle


There isn't really much to see after taking a few photos I think you will want to leave. If you do like peace and quiet you can stay longer there are picnic tables in the are and trees give shade from the summer sun.

viewing deck
There is no entrance fee for this place, you just need to log in. Also, no vehicle is allowed to pass through the tunnel you will need to walk to the site. I just hope this place will be preserved well for future generations to see.


It was an awesome day. Had you been to these places? What do you think about it?
