The Aurora Blanca Falls
The legend
Once upon a time, The falls was simply known as Gandara, from the name of the town. It is said that one early morning, two enchanted
sisters whose beauty is Greek-liked bathed in the falls. The morning which followed were
routine for the sisters. But it didn’t take long before the Spaniards came upon the scene
and wooed the sisters. Their continues meeting at the falls blossomed into love. The
four lovers could always be seen by the natives taking a bath at dawn every other
day.
Three months after their first meeting, new spread that two Spanish Romeos had married city girls. The physical absence of two Romeos
seemed to verity the rumor. But the sisters continued to bathe in the river but with the birds as their companions. The birds would entertain the heart- broken sisters with their songs. Now
and then the sisters would laugh aloud . But behind their smiling faces were wounds of love
Falling out of Love
One week later
The news of the marriage of the Spanish playboys reached the town, the naked bodies of two women were seen floating on the falls. The bodies though were not recovered by the natives because they
sank to the bottom of the falls. Two days after the death of the pretty sisters,
mysterious trees began to grown around the falls.The native believe the trees are relatives guarding the bodies of the deceased sisters. Because of this belief the natives have spared the mysterious trees
from kaingin destruction. Without perhaps the natives knowledge, the trees serves as watershed
for the falls. No wonder the waters keep on flowing with regularity and abundance.
Soon , the natives renamed the falls Gandara to Aurora Blanca, in honor of the two enchanted sisters. Aurora Blanca which in Spanish, mean “Dawn” and “ White” respectively
