The stars of Mano Po 6: My Mother's Love with director Joel Lamangan (4th from left, partly hidden), and producers Mother Lily (in front of direk Joel) and Roselle Monteverde (right).

This Metro Manila Film Festival entry will also highlight Beijing's famous destinations and its culture.

Before Zsa Zsa Padilla entered the former palace, a group of Filipinos approached her for this photo op.

"Want some?" said Heart Evangelista, offering a biscuit stick.

Raymond Isaac was in charge of photography. Due to the extremely cold weather, the photographer used a camera worth 200,000 pesos.

The lady talking to him is the film's line producer Susan Tagle.

Ciara Sotto plays the eldest daughter of Sharon Cuneta. She said about this role, "Ako yung naniniwala sa kanya...Though we all grew up with our aunt, portrayed by Zsa Zsa Padilla, I still chose my mom here."

Heart is the rebellious daughter in Mano Po 6. The Kapuso actress is grateful to Regal Films for this movie project.

Sharon Cuneta brought her own personal assistant and stylist to China.

In the movie, they're archenemies, but once the camera switches off, Sharon and Zsa Zsa are good friends.

She looks "in character" here. But in between the shots, the Megastar would either sing or crack a joke.

Zsa Zsa is also kuwela. When asked how she prepared for her role, she quipped half- seriously, "I read the script."

One of the many group shots.

"Direk, kuha ba background? Sana hindi nagmukhang nag-pose kami sa bakuran," said Shawie, laughing heartily.

The trip was all work for Ms. Roselle Monteverde-Teo, who made sure that everything during this Beijing shoot was in place.

In the background, her mom Lily Monteverde, and PEP and YES! magazine editor-in-chief Jo-Ann Maglipon, smiled for the camera.

Mother Lily said of John Manalo: "Favorite ko ito..."

While waiting for the rest of group, direk Joel Lamangan (left) and supervising producer Manny Valera discuss plans for the next stop, The Great Wall of China.

GMA-7's Lhar Santiago joined the conversation.

During the trip, wherever Zsa Zsa Padilla goes, her LV luggage follows.
