Davao: Eden Nature Park
One of the most famous tourist spots in Davao City is the Eden Nature Park. It is a 1-hour drive from the city and is located on top of the hills. We were fortunate enough to go there on our last day in Davao. It was probably my most awaited day of our trip there! I was told about how beautiful and fun the place is! And it really was! I was very excited about the rides that we were going to take, especially the Skycycle! You see, it was actually my first aerial adventure! I haven't even tried the zipline here in my hometown! I guess I'm not that "gutsy". But the Skycycle was definitely something not to pass. It's sort of a new ride and it's not really that famous yet. I was super excited yet very nervous at the same time! And I'm proud to say that I did it! Hurray!
The place is also very huge. We went on a tour on the whole place and I was wow-ing the whole time!
First stop of the tour was the Flower Garden. It was so beautiful!
Huge pretty sunflower!
Feeling lost in the woods. Lol
Another stop was the Lola's Garden. We were on top of the hill and overviewing Davao!
The wishing well covered with pretty gumamela flowers.
After lunch, we were on to the adventures! We tried out the "Indianna Jones" or so I'd like to call it "The Wrecking Ball" lol!
All together now! :D This ride is usually for the kids since it's only near to the ground. But ofcourse we had to try it! :)
This is too funny not to post! My sister looking like a witch! And me.. looking so tiny lol.
We were so energized!
Excuse our haggard (but happy) faces!
My treasures :)
Feeling fashion blogger. Lol but this was totally candid!
My not so little sister! She's actually bigger than me now! And she's still in highschool! How come she got the height genes and I didn't? Lol
The most awaited, Skycycle!!!
My mother, Tita, and Uncle went on first.
Our turn. We were obviously very nervous!! Adrenaline rush!
I was actually paddling like crazy because if you stop paddling, then you'll really stop! Who would want to get stuck hundreds of meters above the ground? Not me!
I was aww-ing at how beautiful the sight is!
Unfortunately, the ride is back and forth. So yeah, you had to bike back to where you started! Twice the nervousness!
My favorite picture of us in the Skycycle. Breathtaking view at the background!
We did it! I had to gather all my guts because it's not everyday that you get the chance to go biking in the clouds, right? :) Definitely worth it despite how nerve wrecking it was!
Eden Nature Park is definitely a must-go when you're in Davao. The best place to go to whether you're with your friends or family. Super duper fun! :)
