Mount Daraitan & Tinipak River

Reviewed By uthipsay - Manila, Philippines

Mountain Daraitan is very famous for Sunrise view as this is highest peak in this region. If you want to see the Sunrise, need to reach at the top by 6 AM, so that you can rest a while for 10 to 15 minutes and then enjoy the Sunrise. The Mountain is full of Rocks and thick jungle. We started from Makati city by Van - a group of 17 visitors at 11 PM and reached Daraitan town in Tanay at 2 AM. Last 1 hour drive was rough due to no real road. Towards end, you cross the river Tinipak over a narrow wooden bridge. We started to climb at 3:30 AM with a local guide with us. the Guide was carrying a Wireless Walkie Talkie. You must carry at Touch with Headband - so that your hands are free and need to wear hand gloves - as while going up or coming down, you have to take support of the Rocks (may have sharp edges) or Trees. Always follow your guide else you will be lost, the Path is muddy at some places. there are 3 stations (small rest area) where you get Coconut water or Coffee. We reached at the Sunrise Point at 6 AM however could not see the Sunrise due to Clouds and Fog, but the weather at the top (about 2700 Feet altitude) was pleasant. we had good photo shoot and then started to another peak called "Heart Peak" about 1 hour walk - passing through Rocks and caves. At Heart Peak Point you see splendid view of river Tinipak. Here you have facility to take some snacks and place to sit and relax. From there we walked down - thorough rocks and rocks at the base near river. Had lunch in Daraitan and returned back to Makati by evening. It is a good and slightly tough Trek but I am sure you will enjoy it.

Museo Orlina

Museo Orlina is a veritable treasure trove of contemporary art of the internationally-acclaimed, pioneer, and foremost practitioner of glass sculpture in the Philippines, Ramon Orlina. The museum has four levels of exhibit area, a sculpture garden and amphitheater, and a roof deck to enjoy the spectacular view of Taal Lake.

The place is easy to find as it is along the highway. The road is quite steep tho. The museum has interesting pieces and if you are an Orlina fan , and frequent his art exhibits in Manila, I highly recommend you visit this museum. Aside from his work, some of his old VW cars are also displayed and his backyard is also interesting with all other artworks in collab with other artists are showcased.

The place is very peaceful and conducive to quiet reflection. Masses here are so solemn and lovely with the nuns’ lovely prayers and singing, so that they feel almost magical.

Taal Volcano

Taal Volcano is located about 60 km (about 37 miles) south of Metro Manila. Last major eruption was reported back in 1965 that affected villages in the surrounding area.

Reviewed By Red-Stilleto - Philippines, null

The place features a lot of sightseeing, activity and eating choices. The trek to the volcano shows the past sites of volcanic eruptions. Along the ridge, there’s a mini zoo, horseback rides and entertainment places like the Tagaytay Highlands. The place also features popular restaurants known for gourmet food, coffee and local beef dish called bulalo. Taal Volcano and Tagaytay present a lot of attractions that will satisfy every visitor or tourist.

Peoples Park In The Sky

Reviewed By workofart_III - Yanbu, Saudi Arabia

A must for everyone who visits Tagaytay. The place are not properly maintained but let's face it, the entrance fee are very low compared to any tourist spot considering it is in a prime location. Instead be focus on the breathtaking view and very calming cool breeze. I've been here countless times still never fails to awe.
