We had an off-campus workshop last week in Baras, Rizal, and it was a welcome change in environment and pace. The venue also afforded a view of the provinces of Rizal, Laguna and even Quezon.
If you notice the power lines in the photo, these connect to the two power plants in the area – the Malaya Thermal Plant and the Pililla Wind Farm both in Pililla, Rizal.
Tanay has a small port and a lighthouse. There are many fish pens in the area so most boats using the port are probably fishing boats. There was a proposal many years ago for extending the ferry service along the Pasig River to towns along the lake. This required clearing the lake of many fish pens to make it navigable. I hear the plans are being revived but I think its a wait and see in as far as these projects are concerned.
