Sulong Sumulong Park!!!

Dimasalang Park to Sumulong Park. In the time that the said park changes its name it is also the time where a lot of changes and progressions happened to our City. I grew up going to this place after church. Before, it was like any usual plaza but when the Antipolo became a city and Victory mall needs to build in that place, it also changed its name and its place.  It is actually easy to locate because it is only in front of three known place, Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage Church, Victory Mall Antipolo and Municipal hall. It is not like any of the park that everybody knows, it is not that huge because in my own vision it was build in front of the church for people to find its relaxation after going to the peace place.

A lot of things to remember specially when I was in high school, after going to school, we always had a time to went there because it is also one of our way to our house.  You can stay there and eat because there’s a variety of food that you can choose beside of the park. If you also want to be relaxed, you can also have your massage where visually impaired people will serve you. It is pleasant to feel that you have your massage at the same time you have also the time to help those people.

There are months that people are so excited to go to Sumulong Park. Every Ber months the municipal of Antipolo do something to make the Sumulong Park more attractive. When the Christmas gets nearer, a lot of decorations like giant Christmas tree and giant gifts are there. They also put life size Santa Clause where a lot of tourists take their pictures. The whole month of May also, people go to the park to be involve or to watch different activities for the reason of SUMAKAH Festival. SUman MAngga, KAsoy at Hamaka Festival, it shows what makes Antipoleños be proud of their City. Every Sunday of May, a lot of performers are there to entertain the people.

Maybe it is not like other park that can you go around, but Sumulong Park made for the citizen of the Antipolo and for the other to remind the development and happiness of the said City.
