Malaking Bato is located in Mulanay, Quezon, Philippines.
The century old legendary boulder along the coast of Barangay Sta. Rosa which had been famous as a unique picnic spot among the residents and visitors alike.
There is a story behind this magnificent boulder.
Santa and Rosa are best friends. One day, they decided to play at the beach then suddenly, a heavy rain poured. There were thunderstorms too. Not knowing what to do, they just stayed at their place and hugged each other. Then a lightning stroke them. The two had never been found ever since. The people of their place got surprised when they saw a big rock at the sea. So, they named the place where the rock is, Santa Rosa.
How magical was the boulder to have its own legend.
