Balamban's Little Garden

Another weekend escapade for me and my hubby as we took route Tabuelan to Cebu via the Transcentral Highway. Riding on a motorcycle along the transcentral has always been a breathtaking view for me and I will never get over the cold air and fog surrounding the mountains.

I remember the 3rd time we passed through the said highway, it was around 7:00 PM, the light posts are far from each other while going up, that it feels so eerie. We were the only ones on the road. It was so dark, plus the fog made it harder for us. Although, we are a group, traveling on 8 motorcycles, it still feels eerie as me and Ronald headed the pack.

Anyways, we saw this beautiful garden, I fell in love with the flowers and the view. It is about 33-34 kilometers east of Balamban bound lane, it is about 45-50 min ride from JY Square, Lahug, Cebu. I felt enchanted by the colorful flowers and the mountainous view.

Here's a few scraps I have taken, I hope you like it.

Picture taking is free, you may go to view deck and buy snacks like softdrinks, sandwiches and junk foods. The care taker said that the owner is a filipina and is now living abroad.

 There are also native Igorots that you let you take pictures with them for P20.00 per picture/person.
