- Biri Rock Formations
Biri Rock Formation
Biri takes pride in its natural scenic spots, foremost of which is the magnificent rock formations of Magasang and Bel-at. Two huge, beautifully carved rocks, each about the size of a three-story building, stand separately on a wide flat rock on one of the islets called Magasang. A big rock formation with a bat cave underneath can be found in Bel-at.
These spots have been attracting bothforeign and domestic tourists for years. Recent attention paid by the Philippine film industry has served to make Biri a growing hotspot for tourism.
