Drive by Pictures of Gapan City Nueva Ecija

Gapan, now a city of Nueva Ecija, hosted Tutubi once when he ate at Luz Kitchenette, restaurant downtown, on his way to San Antonio last year. This time, he passed by the city and saw various improvements including Walter Mart mall (that creates heavy traffic on the highway).

The welcome arch to Gapan City features a pair of sandals on top testament to the city's tag as the Sandals Capital of Nueva Ecija much like Liliw town of Laguna's claim to the tsinelas as flagship product.




Note: pictures taken inside a moving car with tinted windows that's why there's noticeable color aberration and blur. Pictures for photojournalistic purpose only (palusot)

For other interesting places to see in Gapan, Nueva Ecija's official website lists Minalungao National Park, but Tutubi can't visit it due to lack of time. Possibly in the future.
