The new Montemaria Miracle Walk stretches an impressive 118 metres and stands at a towering height of 45 metres. As you traverse through the glass walkway, you will be treated to breathtaking panoramic views of Batangas Bay and the surrounding landscape. What's more, the transparent floor also provides a thrilling sensation of walking on air, kind of like walking in the clouds, as if suspended above the world below.
