Nagmahal, Nasaktan, Nagenjoy sa Gasan

Ilang beses na akong nagmahal, ilang beses na ring nasaktan subalit sa kabila ng mga pagsubok na ito, may isang lugar na nagpapabalik sa akin ng sigla at kulay, ito ay ang bayan ng Gasan.

Ang Gasan ay isa sa anim na bayan sa lalawigan ng Marinduque. Sinasabing ito ang ikalawa sa pinakamatandang bayan sa buong isla. Kilala rin ito sa pinakamalinis na bayan sa buong probinsya. Dito nagsimula ang Gasang-Gasang Festival na ipinagdiriwang tuwing Holy Week, Linggo ng Pagkabuhay o Easter Sunday.

Narito ang ilang mga natatanging larawan na naghihikayat na bisitahin mo na ang lugar.
