The trip to La Union was a bit unexpected. It was supposed to be a trip to Singapore but flights got cancelled so me and my friend just decided to go to Thunderbird Poro Point. A few weeks before the trip we thought to visit other places in La Union since we are already there.
There are only few place to visit in La Union. The province is popular as a place for surfing. Most of the resorts offer surfing lesson. Aside from surfing, one of the places people visit in La Union is the Macho Temple.
The temple was built in 1975 and can be found in San Fernando, La Union. The temple is towering high in the highway that it can be easily seen however its gate is just small that you might not notice its entrance. The place has also a magnificent view of the sea.
The temple is decorated with ancient Chinese arts. The whole place is brightly colored by red and green. The place is visited not only by worshipers but also people of other religion like Catholics and Christians. Visitors can also offer incense and say their worship.
Outside the temple are deities carved in stones. When you go up, there you can see the sculpture of Kuan Yi Ma, the God of Mercy.
Below are other pictures of the Macho Temple.
