Appreciating Gourmet Food at the Bee Farm in Panglao Island in Bohol

-

A must-see establishment in Bohol is the Bee Farm which is located in the very famous island of Panglao. It is popular for producing organic vegetables which they also use in preparing the dishes in their restaurant.












The Bee Farm offers tours inside their herbal/vegetable garden which are cultivated using organic materials.











You are also taken to the bee production site, where an assistant explains how honey is produced and about the different social ranking of bees. It is really very informative and educational. There is a queen bee, working bees, male bees that only mate with the queen, soldier bees, etc. It is a wide society in there.








The Bee farm is a hotel/restaurant where tourists can stay and appreciate the verdant surroundings and the ocean view.  There are many chalets for guests to choose from that are equipped with creature comforts. This is one of the chalets that the Bee Farm rents out to guests.













The Bee Farm overlooks the ocean so you can enjoy the soft breeze and scenic view.













As well as the relaxing interior.













What is a Bohol trip without taking a dip in the famous beaches of Panglao Island?  Some of them can be really expensive and beautifully created or cheap and simple where all kinds of people converge for Sunday picnics. 













The green waters, clear and fine sand look so inviting under the blue skies.   Don't forget to include the Bee Farm in your itinerary to complete your Bohol Trip.

Circle of Fun is the Latest attraction in Quezon City Memorial Circle

I was in Quezon Memorial Circle this afternoon and I chanced upon this mini amusement center currently being constructed inside the big Quezon City landmark.  This new attraction at the QCMC showcases thrilling rides like the Wild Wind.  This is actually like the Space Shuttle of Enchanted Kingdom in Santa Rosa, Laguna.  It is a modified form of the traditional roller-coaster.  There are also rides for the little ones like the usual water bump cars.  And the horror rides which I will dare not ride because I do not have the kind of heart that can withstand intense fear.   While I laud the Quezon City government for this endeavor of providing a small amusement park for the residents of Quezon City so that they do not have to go all the way to Star City or Enchanted Kingdom to be able to experience the different rides, I can't help but feel dismayed over the changes in the scenery inside the memorial.  I frequented the place way, way back whe...

    One of the reasons that tourists go to Mt. Mayon in droves is the ATV Adventure.   This activity allows tourists to go to the foot of Mt.  Mayon and see the beauty of this great lady up close by means of an all-terrain vehicle.  Up there, visitors can also enjoy the view of the city of Legaspi.  They can also savor the scent of the clean mountain air and get lots and lots of photographs amid the verdant background.  ATV stands for all-terrain vehicle.  This transportation is especially built to enable riders to get past all kinds of terrain , may it be rough, rocky, watery, sandy, muddy, hilly, etc.  It is basically automatic, but it also has gears (I wouldn't know when to use them, if you ask me.)    Before I started my three-hour drive to the foot of Mt. Mayon, I had a quick dry-run just to test if the machine was working well.  Also I made sure that  I was wearing all the necessary gears to keep me sa...

While enjoying my breakfast of adobong baboy and hot beef soup in Mam and Sir Diner located along the high way in Silay City, I noticed that most of the people around me were mestizas and mestizos so the curiouser I got about the history, not only of Silay but also of Negros Occidental. Silay City is also known as the Paris of Negros because of the well-preserved old haciendas , about 30 of them, that provide a glimpse of life back when it was the leading sugar-producer in the country, examples of these are the Balay Negrense and the Bernardino-Ysabel Jalandoni Home which have been turned into museums for guests to appreciate the history and the culture of the town especially during when hacienderos were the leading figures of society. The Balay Negrense boasts of memorabilia and architectural features dating back 1897 when it was built by Victor F. Gaston, son of Yves Leopold Germain Gaston, a Frenchman who married a Batanguena and later on relocated to Negros. Balay Neg...
