Hinulugang Taktak in Antipolo is an iconic location that has been a travel destination for generations of Filipinos.

It’s one of the most important places in the province of Rizal, and has a lot of cultural, historical, and natural importance.

Hinulugang Taktak also once fell victim to pollution and human encroachment, but government efforts have since made sure that the falls are now rehabilitated. Now Hinulugang Taktak is now back to its former glory!
