Travel Destination - Eden Nature Park

Hello Bees! I have a buzz on the Hive.

My wife gifted me with a package on the Eden Nature Park and I can say I really enjoyed our activity there.

Eden Nature Park is Located in Davao City, Philippines. A good tourist destination I would recommend to those who like nature and adventure.

I'll just show some of the things I loved about the place.

Posing in their reception is me @jwynqc and my loving wife @djean both a noob bees on the Hive.

We got a cottage for the night. The cottage we got doesn't have an air-conditioning. The place is cold due to its high elevation, we even turn the ceiling fan off in the middle of the night because we can't endure the cold temperature. Accomodation price are reasonable.

For the foods you can either ask them to deliver on your cottage or they can pick you up for a ride to their dining hall because cottages are far away from the restaurant. Food are also delicious. We only manage to photo the veges which we are not able to consume so we wrap it up. Vegetables came from the resort's own farm and it is really fresh.

There is a dinosaur park 😃😃.. NOT realy. Just a kids play ground where kids and kids-alike can play.

Hang slide.

Look at these roots. I only saw them in the movies before. You might have noticed the green dwarf already. I just wonder if there is elves here.

A few more poses

They have a nice swimming pool both for adult and kids.

But the water is too cold so we did could not enjoy much.

So, off we go.

The exciting part are the activities and trail. We did not partake much on other activities, we just play a bit on a swing that slides down.
For the trail, you have options to hike passing through a slope and rough route which we choose not to or you can go using the road some are pave and some are rough or if you are not fit enough to do hiking, they offer a vehicle with a tour guide for a small fee and stop on every spot.

We start here.

We noticed a deer and take some photos. Deer is not a common animal in the Philippines. You can only see this animal in the zoo.

We passed by a small stream along the way.

and here is the beautiful log cabin the trail map been showing.

I tried to see what is inside but it was close.
We just take turns on taking our photos with the log cabin.

We started walking again.

This fern is big and it is my first time to see fern these big. I only saw small vegetable fern before from the vegetable market.

My first encounter with the dragon fruit plant. It just does not have fruits.

Some wild flowers along the way.

A flower garden but it looks like ordinary garden. Probably those flower that we see in the room comes from here.

Finally, we reach the Lolas Garden. The fresh vegetable from the restaurant comes from here. There are other visitors when we arrive in this area so we waited till they finished so we can take our turns for the photos.

We saw some gardener working in the vegetable garden earlier. They already left before we take photographs.

A wishing well full of fresh flowers.

An Ancient Machine.

There is a native hammock made from rattan which we can't let pass. We take our turns =).

The Beast of Burden. The Philippine National Animal. This sculpted carabao looks real in the photo. You can see also the nipa hut in the background.

Time to go to the next stop.

This stop showcases the culture and tribes that have live in the region.
