Visiting Bathala Cave in Sta Cruz Marinduque

My friends and I decided to celebrate Easter Sunday (April 8,2012) in Bathala Cave which are located in Barangay Ipil, Santa Cruz, Marinduque and about 30-45 minutes travel from the town of Sta. Cruz. It is one of the most must-try when you visit Sta Cruz in Marinduque. We bought foods, drinks at Sta. Cruz Market, one of the busy market in the town. In province there are some mining activities in the area but Bathala Cave remains one of the last few sanctuaries for wildlife and protected area according to the local goverment of Marinduque.

The Bathala caves are said to be mystical and the repository of psychic powers emanating from various points of the universe. It is believed that there are seven caves composing the Bathala Cave Complex. However, only four of these caves have been explored.
