Pakil and Paete in Laguna

San Pedro de Alcantara Church, Pakil, Laguna

Our Lady of Turumba or the Nuestra SeƱora de los Dolores de Turumba
 is the Patron Saint of Pakil 





All roads lead to the  St. James the Apostle Church as a Paete resident leads an image of Christ to the church

senakulo in the plaza and in the sweltering heat









Tradition, artistry and spirituality is at its peak in the neighboring Rizal towns of Pakil and Paete during the Lenten Season. 

The pictures here taken Maundy Thursday 2010 is proof of that.
