We visited again the place to view the nice decorated and colorful street houses. Even there are a lot of people there; we tried to take a photo to experience again because it’s almost 3 years we can’t visit there. Aside from the decorated and colorful street the houses are judged and the best one is proclaimed the winner. Every year, tourists roam the municipality to witness the decoration of houses.
A snapshot I took during our attending Sunday Mass at Kamay ni Hesus in Lucban, Quezon. It was the new fountain there with Mama Mary’s statue and aside from that it is another attraction in Kamay ni Hesus.
