On my way to visit Abra one time, I chanced upon the beautiful sight in Narvacan. This is the coastal area of Sulvec which they call Paraiso ni Juan.

Actually I have seen a ship which I thought was docked in the area. With the background of the sea, it was such a beautiful sight to capture on my lens. I have already passed by but I went back to catch this ship. The time I arrived there, the ship was gone from the site but I later noticed that it kept on moving further on a partly covered area. I missed the good vantage point. Nevertheless, I was able to shoot it.

There was a stair immediately before the grotto which I climbed. When I saw the image, it was Our Lady of Mary, the Virgin. It is a beautiful and a life-size image facing the mainland. This has been the site where the classic Filipino movie Panday was shot. I never thought that I’d be able to explore this monument. I have been passing by this coastal road and many times I have seen this grotto on a distance but its amazing to be near it.
