If you've dreamed of visiting the Philippines, May is an ideal month. Several festivals honor the Virgin Mary, who is considered the patron of the month. The most fragrant and colorful is Flores de Mayo and Santacruzan.

This several centuries old celebration occurs during the entire month of May, and is also observed by the Filipino diaspora community throughout the world.
