Invading Medellin Bamboo Forest: A Mix of Japan and Korea Feels in The Philippines

It feels great and surreal to explore places that could make us happy. Being happy is not just only by eating good food, but also invading places aside from our comfort zone.

To be real, I'm not really into exploring, but the anxiety I had these past years made me realized how important it is to enjoy life. What I mean by enjoying life is that we get to explore places and be amazed of the spot's features, and could able to forget the burden we carrying for years in a while.

I really agree that being happy is all that matters. Our over-all health relies on how we handle each things with our own personal emotions. Based on my own experience, the verge of being so down could really destroy our mental health. In contrast, a state of being over the moon is the best feeling and that it could able to combat all the problems we have and enduring for the long time.

So at this moment, I want to share with you all how this beauty spot made me forget all the grudges I have in my heart...

The Grand Entrance

This is the entrance of Medellin Bamboo Forest and entrance fee of this spot is just $0.55 or ₱30. The fee is just cheap and you could able to witness already the beauty of bamboos inside.

This Bamboo Forest is located at Luy-a, Medellin, Cebu, Philippines. This is a 45 minutes away from our home, if I'm not mistaken, but still it depends on the situation of the road and the vehicle you will use.

The Bamboo View

How perfect the view in this picture. I really couldn't imagine living in this full of bamboos. The place is perfect for instagrammable post or even in this beautiful platform because of how cozy and perfect it was.

It was also windy that time and it was also because the sun was setting up in a normal temperature. Nevertheless, it was so great seeing the view because it of its sightseeing therapy.

The Rent Place

This is the rent place of the Kimono that was inspired in Japan. The price of renting a Kimono costs $2 or ₱100. You can also buy some souvenirs here. Also, I recommend you to rent this kind of outfit since the view and the way you dressed in Kimono are too perfect to pair. So if you ever wanted to visit this place, try renting the Kimono and take any beautiful moments inside this beautiful forest.

It was a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness myself being happy in terms of exploring the wonders of the world. This Bamboo Forest means a lot to me. It has given me the free will to do the things that could make me the happiest person in the entire universe.

If given the chance to visit this Bamboo Forest, I would really grab the opportunity and enjoy every second, every minute, and every hour in this spectacular bamboo place.

I would really go back here since I'm super inlove with its atmosphere. The mix vibes of Korean and Japan is the living proof that I want to go back here. To be honest, I really love to visit Korea and Japan someday and that is one of the reasons why I immensely love this marvelous spot because of these mixing vibes.
