DAHILAYAN ADVENTURE PARK, BUKIDNON

DAHILAYAN ZIPLINE
ASIA'S LONGEST DUAL CABLE ZIPLINE


Wanna feel like a super hero? Wanna feel like flying? Do not take drugs to get high. Be realistic. Conquer your fears. Experience the best of Manolo Fortich, here we
go....the Dahilayan zipline. About 840m Asia's longest dual cable zipline.






I wish I was able o spread my hands to make it look more fantastic. But it's better than having no pictures at all. Definitely it's caught in the act and I super love it! 




Atlast!! I have conquered Asia's longest dual zipline.



Forest park ground. Anyone is allowed to have some picnics here.



For the information of everybody, wild animal's aren't real in this picture.



This ain't Baguio city. This is Bukidnon. It's so cool and refreshing to be here. Needless to say, this is also a cold place where you could inhale fresh air. :-)


I kept looking back because my time there was limited. I'm afraid...I might not have a chance to see it again. 




EXACT LOCATION:
Brgy. Dahilayan, Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon

DIWATA CAVE & JURASSIC PARK

It took 1 hour murmuring and sacrificing butt-ache while riding "habal2x", it’s a kind of single motor, going to Diwata Cave. It was a wide rough road. That was my first long habal2x trip insofar as memory is concerned. Although the scenery is obviously alluring where a wild flora grows beside the rough roads, my skepticism prevails and I ended up questioning “What’s with this place? Why do people keep visiting this remote place?” I was born to be a nature-lover so most likely I knew what is beautiful and what’s not. My friend kept pointing a place and said “we are going to be there later”. With disappointment I just answered “ahh okay”. The long ride and few chit-chats continued….


I did not appreciate the place since it seems like an ordinary one until the next day when we started roaming around. 




“Amazing” finally I blurted it out as I saw a huge rocks and exquisite caves facing the serene sea. The water was even clear. It was a perfect timing since it was a low tide.  We all had a chance to enjoy another God’s beautiful creation.




This is how it looks like when you are in the top. It clearly shows how huge rocks can be so scary. hahah!



This is the sole big tree that gives shelter to those who wanted to observe the movements of the sea.  This is located near the caves, approximately 10 meters above sea level.

In a few meters away from Diwata Cave, another captivating landscape will surely nourish your eyes’ fantasies and this is popularly known as “JURASSIC PARK”.  Two giant Dinosaurs sculptures welcome you as you enter the said park. 


As we wandered around, we saw different kinds of meaningful sculptures. To name one, we saw naked man, woman and a baby (as seen in the below picture)…the statue is somewhat symbolic for us Filipinos since it talks about our history, it represents how our ancestors live during their time.  



Jurassic park established its own identity by having a cave pool. With misfortune, we were not able to enter the pool because that time the pool underwent maintenance. By just looking at it on top, I, in no doubt, could certainly say the pool is astonishing…oh yeah!


Jurassic park offers rooms for rent which is ideal for honeymoon and also cottages for family gatherings…hehehe…
