Revisiting the Guimaras Man-Made Forest: Trees Reaching the Sky

"The clearest way into the universe is through a forest wilderness." — John Muir

Last year, we found a special place in our province. It is the Man-Made Forest in Guimaras. We wanted to go back and see the trees again. We also wanted to see if the place had changed.

🍃 When we went there before, we stayed in one spot, near the entrance. This time, we chose to explore deeper in the woods. We followed every small path we could find. The ground was covered in brown, crunchy leaves.

The forest is full of very tall and slender trees. Most of them are mahogany trees. They grow straight and high into the air. It felt very peaceful to walk among them.

It was a beautiful, sunny day. The sky was blue and very clear. Because the trees are so tall, the sunlight peeks through the leaves. It creates pretty patterns on the path and through the trees.

As we walked deeper, we found a small wooden hut. We think it is a place for the caretaker to rest. It looked very quiet and cozy sitting there in the middle of the woods. They did a great job maintaining the place. No overgrown weeds, no trash anywhere 👍👏
