As the mountain’s deity, Mariang Makiling is the protector of the mystic mountain’s many wonders including its colorful birds, astonishing flowers, and surreal natural wonders including ponds and streams of water. The myriads of natural gifts of the mountain are tended by one of the most loved diwatas in Philippine folklore, known not only for her arresting beauty but also her golden heart. This national costume reimagines Mariang Makiling as the goddess of the mountain who not only governs but also sustains life and providence to all living beings with her endless grace, kindness, and supplication.
