Nature Tripping

If you'd like to commune with nature, Eden Nature Park is the place to be! An hour drive from the city proper, Eden Park is situated along Toril district. Better bring with you a sweater since it's kinda cold there especially in the afternoon. A private vehicle is needed since no public vehicles are available in going to Eden.

The rates are shown above. I took a pic of their package rates for you guys to be aware of. We had a lunch package and that is inclusive of lunch buffet and paid another P55/pax for the tour.

We arrived at around 1:00pm. They only had a number of dishes served, perhaps we're already late for lunch?

That is what we use for our tour around the park. The trip is approximately 45 mins. with 2-3 times stop overs for picture takings and a tour guide along with you. I love the flower gardens!

During our stop over at the flower garden, I took pic of this bee. Luckily I got the shot hurriedly. LOL. Various flowers can be found here.

Sometime in 2005 or 2006, Game Ka Na Ba? (Are You Game?), a game show, was shot in this place. Nice view I tell you!

They plant their own crops and veggies, and use this to serve in their kiosk. This is their nursery overlooking Davao City.

Taking a pic inside this half nipa hut. LOL. Feels like living in the province. LOL.

A unique well with floating gumamelas on it. Nice spot to take pics again.

Don't forget to ride the Indiana Jones, okay?! Well, if you don't find it thrilling, take the Skyrider instead. It's located on the other side of the park

This is the aviary, a number of different kinds of birds can be found here. A lot of big mosquitoes as well, so better wear some Off-Lotion when going here. LOL.

That's it for Eden! A lot of things can be done here. You can visit their site before going there.
