One of the most anticipated on-the-rise projects in the Philippines, the New Clark City is a promising development holding tons of business possibilities not just in the Tarlac municipalities it is occupying (Capas and Bamban), but also for the whole country.

According to the BCDA, the New Clark City will be “the first in the country to address the impacts of global climate change through its environment-friendly features and measures on disaster readiness through smart technologies”. 1

The New Clark City is envisioned to be a balance of “smart and green” city, where smart innovation and technology coincide with the Capas’ nature-rich environment. This massive Central Luzon business center aims to make Capas’ green features its prime asset. This 9,000-hectare community makes Capas the house of the urban centers in Central Luzon.1

A token of history standing tall within the land of the New Clark City, the Capas National Shrine is a remarkable landmark commemorating the historical Bataan Death March that started at Mariveles, Bataan in April 1942. The Capas National Shrine marks the endpoint of the said historical event, which was formerly named Camp O’Donnell.

The 31, 000 trees surrounding the parkland represent the number of Filipinos and Americans who died during the Death March. Up to this day, the shrine signifies the heroic deeds of the soldiers turned into Prisoners-of-War (POWs) who suffered during one of Philippine History’s darkest times.

Now hailed as one of the tourist spots in Capas for its historical significance, visitors are allowed to bring a tent and use the parkland as a picnic spot.

Its massive eruption in 1991 resulted in a lake formation on its crater, now also a famous tourist spot known as Lake Pinatubo. This crater lake is visited for its enchantingly clear-blue waters. But, tourists are not advised to swim given the lake waters’ potential toxicity.

Mount Pinatubo rests on the boundaries of the provinces of Tarlac, Pampanga, and Zambales. It is heavily surrounded by dense forests and is owned by the Indigenous People Aeta, with the ownership granted in 2009.
