  1. Air Force City Park

Air Force City Park is a field of greenery annexed by massive US Military aviation vehicles used in WWII. The vast open-space park offers relaxation and fresh air.

  1. Halo Halo Sa Corazon (Halo Halo in Corazon)

The word halo, when translated, means “to mix; mixed together.” Hence, the famous refreshing Filipino dessert halo-halo is a mixture of shaved ice and various ingredients. Halo-halo is pretty famous in the country, but for an unfathomable reason, certain individuals can turn a typical Halo Halo into an exquisite one – and I’m talking about the mouthwatering and indulgent Halo Halo of Pampanga! In Corazon St. in Angeles City, Pampanga is a snack house that serves a simple but scrumptiously creamy kind of Halo-Halo. As what the locals would call it, the snack house is famed as “Halo Halo sa Corazon.”

  1. Aling Lucing’s

Sisig is a famous dish loved by Filipinos. It is a best enjoyed with rice, but others would love it with a cold beer. Various provinces of the Philippines have their own style of cooking Sisig. But Sisig was originated by the Kapampangans (people in Pampanga). Thus, it is only there that you can taste the original tang of Sisig. Aling Lucing’s is one of the well-known and most-visited eateries that serves original Sisig. A serve of this delicious meal is only $4.
