The famous Las Piñas Bamboo Organ is located in St. Joseph Parish Church at the city of Las Piñas. (Southern Metro Manila) The organ is declared as a National Cultural Treasure. The address of the church where the Bamboo organ is housed is P. Diego Cera Ave., Manuyo, Poblacion, Las Piñas City.
Upon our arrival in St. Joseph Parish Church, we were hoping that the Bamboo organ is being played but we didn't expect much since it was not on a Sunday. Luckily, there was an on-going wedding celebration inside the church and we are blessed enough that the organ is indeed playing. Seeing the organ is one thing, hearing it play is another. Such a wonderful creation, organ out of bamboo. It is what I called: Proudly Philippine Made :)
The International Bamboo Organ Festival is from February 23 to 29, 2012. Please visit http://www.bambooorgan.org/news.html for more information.
How To Get There:
By Car -- I suggest you ply Cavitex (Manila-Cavite Expressway) instead of using SLEX (South Luzon Expressway). Not only the location of the church is near Cavitex its also WAY CHEAPER!. From Makati, take EDSA, take the u-turn slot before going to MOA and then pass by Roxas Blvd. Just go straight and you will see the toll gate of Cavitex. Exit at Zapote.
