Hot air balloon inside Calrk Air Base - Angeles City

Clark Air Base, Angeles City, Pampanga

A couple of events in 1991 could have seen the collapse of the sprawling
city of Angeles, north of Manila. The most violent eruption ever of nearby
Mount Pinatubo sent steam and ashes 40km (25mi) into the stratosphere,
darkening the sky and leaving the ground around it a virtual lunar surface.
Frightened off by something even it couldn't contain, the US Air Force
closed its Clark Air Base following the eruption. This left the city's many
''hotels'' without clientele. However, the residents and businesses of
Angeles proved more resilient than was first thought. The surrounds of
Pinatubo are now an eerie tourist attraction - the coagulated material has
formed streams of rock up to 20m (65ft) high.

Pros and Cons

Pros:it still have the same beauty...enjoy it!
Cons:well, U.S. Air Force are gone and its bad :-(
In a nutshell:not just an open big field!!! something more...
