My Winter-Feels Christmas Holiday!

#tripblazers #staycation #celebratewithtrip This has been my safe place since I was 12. Bukidnon was and will always be my home next to Davao. When I was a kid I used to spend my summer in this place. Dahilayan Forest Park is a family getaway! We usually visit this place over Christmas Holiday. A simple hot coffee/choco + few kakanin with life updates and sharing future plans is our usual thing. The photo above was taken years back when we decided to go to Dahilayan with my Family and Friends. We spent the day there hanging out, chillin' and just simple talking without gadgets and social media.

#holidayvacation Maria Cristina Falls is the second-highest waterfall in the Philippines, as is found in the suburbs of Iligan City on Mindanao Island. It’s the star landmark of the host city, which is part of the reason why it’s known as ‘the City of Majestic Waterfalls’. There are over 20 waterfalls in the area, but the Maria Cristina Falls is the grandest. #givethanks#springholiday#2019firsttravelpic#instagramworthydestinations#decembertravel#holidayvacation

how nice the majestic fall is. The nature is very friendly

The Famous Maria Cristina Falls🇵🇭

#timetotravel The Maria Cristina Falls is also called as the "Queen of Philippine Waterfalls". It is a breathtaking waterfalls with a height of 320 feet which ranks 8th as one of the tallest/highest waterfalls in the Philippines. An interesting legend surrounds this twin waterfall when twin sisters were bathing in Agus River, Maria got swept by the current and Cristina tried to save her. Unfortunatel due to the strength of the current both of them drowned and thus people call the waterfall now as Maria Cristina Falls. An interesting fact: 70% of Mindanao's energy is from this falls. Amazing right? Entrance Ticket: 35 (double check they might have changed it now) Address: Misamis Oriental - Maria Cristina Boundary Rd, Iligan City. #mytripvlog #tripblazers #philippines #nature #waterfall

Nature's Best

#holidayvacation Philippines is reputable for its pristine beaches, there’s nothing like discovering its best-kept secrets and unspoiled beauty. Tinago Falls is one of the many hidden natural treasures that the county has. Tucked within a ravine in Iligan City in Lanao del Norte, this majestic waterfall is the main tourist attraction of the province and also serves as a water source for residents near the area. Its name Tinago Falls in Filipino means “hidden” that perfectly fits its location that one can only reach by descending some 500 steps. The 240 feet high waterfalls will evoke oohs and aahs and so much awe from anyone who will visit it for the first time. It is surrounded by colossal rock structures dotted by thick masses of trees and natural foliage. Despite this towering scene, what lies at the bottom of the falls leaves visitors in even greater astonishment. #merryxmas #merrychristmas#scenicspotguide#nyedestinations#decembertravel#instagramworthydestinations#holidayvacation#merryxmas#awesomepic

The falls are definitely a must see for anyone going to Iligan. Of course it pales in comparison to Maria Cristina Falls but it has its own charm being secluded from everyone. I do hope however that the stairs going down be improved further (the non-Iligan side) to prevent any injuries and improve the overall experience. It would be very nice too if the changing rooms / CR be fixed. #givethanks #givethanks
