The Oldest Balete Tree in Baler

Last month, our friend Pinky went to Baler and went to the oldest balete tree in the area.



She took photos because it immediately reminded her to this scene from TRESE: MASS MURDERS.






According to their tour guide, the tree is so huge, it would take 60 people with arms out-stretched, to encircle the tree.





And here's Pinky about to start her version of the Twelve Trials of the mandirigmang-babaylan.







And here are pictures from the inside of the tree.



Hey Pinky! Is that a diwata behind you?
