Exploring Binaliw Falls; Reconnecting with nature

Hello there my lovely hivers!! For today's blog, it is the continuation of my last blog about exploring the bagatayam falls.

After our lunch, we decided to explore this place, as we were full we have the energy.and ready to trek.

We crossed the streak, it was just safe because the flow of the water is not that strong and the stone is not that slippery buy you have to be careful.

There's a lot of stick of the bamboo tree that block the stream and you have to observe when you pass the streak.

We crossed the stream again, and thankfully when we go here, there weren't many people so, we really enjoy our time.

I enjoy walking at this place because I'm not familiar of this. The flow of the water is so relaxing just hearing the water, the voice of birds is so soothing. Reconnecting with nature is the best decision if you are stressed.

As we walked along, I got surprised of what I saw, the water is color blue/violet. There's a stone on the side,which make the place so magical. It filled with so much greens.

We stopped by, to stare at this mesmerizing place that caught my attention.

We took a picture to document this moment and to capture the beauty of this place.

As you can see it is so clear, you can saw your reflection in here.

After we took some pictures, e continued our trek and saw a sign that written "no trespassing" but since we like to explore, we went anyway ang got really nervous when we saw someone carrying a machete. Fortunately, our teacher talked to him nicely, she explained that we just wanted to go trekking and explore this beautiful place. Thankfully he agreed to let us through.

There's a stream here that is the source of water for bagatayam falls, and its very crystal clear.

There's a statue of Mama Mary in here, and it's really calming. This place is also a chapel, but now it’s only used for mass on Sundays because people here have misused the place and done things that aren’t good.

There are benches wood here where you can sit and admire the beauty of this place. You can pray and spend time with your companions. The sound of the water is very calming. It's a great place to relax and reflect.

There's also a bridge to get closer to Mama Mary. We crossed it so we could approach, pray, and even touch the statue.

This place is said to be very miraculous. I've heard stories that the prayers people offer here often come true. Many believe that if you pray sincerely in this spot, your wishes or requests will be granted.

There’s a spot here for lighting candles to pray. You can light candles and reflect.

We continued with our trek because exploring was the main reason we came here.

While we are walking, we came across a large and beautiful tree that looks like it’s been around for a very long time.

There are also huge rocks in the place, which used to have water flowing from the falls, but it has now dried up.

We found another huge tree and stopped to take pictures because we were amazed by its size, because we rarely see a tree like this.

As we kept exploring, the environment was filled with greenery, which was refreshing for the eyes and made everything feel healthy and peaceful.

We eventually turned back because we lost track of where we were going.

Our teacher treated all of us to burgers. Thanks to her, we were full and satisfied. We truly enjoyed this adventure, and it’s something we’ll remember for a long time.

That's all for today's blog my lovely hivers, I hope you like reading my blog , thankyou for sticking till the end.
