PHILIPPINE INTERNATIONAL HOT-AIR BALLOON FESTIVAL
The Philippines are not only for rest-searching and nature lovers a great aim, but also a fantastic place for hot-air balloon journeys. Every year you can take part in Clark Field on Pampanga in the Philippine Hot-Air Balloon Festival. This is one of the biggest Hot-Air Balloon Festivals of Asia and the sight of these colourful balls which fill the sky, will take away to you the breath.
Also from the 12th to the 13th of February 2010 there is again the possibility for all which are crazy for flying to take part in this festival. Everything what can fly rises from the US Air Force Base “Clark Air Base” in the air: Ultraeasily airplanes, stunt pilots, helicopters, zeppelins, paraglider, engine dragons, parachutists and Kite’s. Name givers of the spectacular event are the colorful hot-air balloons.
During the years before it was always an event of the superlatives with participants from all over the world and more than 100,000 spectators who looked the spectacle on the 60 km northwesterly from Manila situated military airport on Luzon in the province of Pampagna.
Not only for the spectators it leaves a dreamlike impression to observe the coloured activity in the sky, but also the participants will never forget the sight of the wonderful Philippine sceneries any more, the friendliness of the inhabitants which wave to you from the fields.
