Antipolo City

Antipolo City

If you’re planning on visiting Antipolo City, you have better prepared for a roller-coaster like ride of your life…

Just right at the entrance of the city, you’ll notice that it’s not quite like any ordinary place. It’s not that great but it is kind of unique. Beautiful are the winding roads that lead to the city proper. The hustle and bustle in the city’s central market goes on and on almost twenty-four hours a day. The city doesn’t have that many tall buildings and it doesn’t have that much green parks either but its beauty comes from variety.

In the city, you’ll meet different kinds of people from different walks of life. There are honest and good- mannered people but there are also some stupid and crooked ones too. In this urban jungle, one has to be wise to survive.

The city has one of the largest numbers of registered motorcycles in the country. That is primarily due to the fact that tricycle transportation is the leading mode of travel in the city. For this reason, it is advised that visitants bring a hanky to cover their noses when touring the city as protection from soot and dust.

Almost all kinds of shop crowd the city. One kind of them are the computer shops that are located all over the center of the city, each seemingly having different characteristics and charges. A lot of clothing shops also herd in the city. There’s almost every shop for every need.

The real attraction in the city for us Christians though, are the brethren residing in the city. They are friendly and are really very caring. The locale in the city has more than five hundred registered members and is set to get bigger. Though the brethren in the city are not that rich in material objects, they are wealthy in spiritual things.

The city belongs to the Rizal Region, the region owning the team that championed before in the Ang Dating Daan Basketball Association (ADDBA) tournament held in Apalit, Pampangga. I’m really not sure how many times they acquired the championship trophy but I’m sure that they deserved it really well.

At our locale in the city, you’ll find good basketball players ready to play any team that comes in their way. Beating them is a herculean challenge. So come to the city and experience the hospitality of our brethren there. Enjoy the ride!
