When the name of Antique is mentioned, its slogan “Where Mountains Meet the Sea” follows because its long stretch of land is rugged by mountains and faces the Sulu Sea on the west. Tourists often enjoy the impressive land and seascapes but do not forget to visit the Kawa Hot Bath to be submerged in a huge pot over a fire, Antique’s take on an exciting primitive style bath. Rafflesia, one of the world’s biggest flowers, are endemic to Antique.
