It was way back on January day back in 2002 when we set off for a trip to Davao City. It was a tour package around the city. Eden Natures Park was the first stop we went to. It is a gem and popular place in Davao City, their top attractions and it was part of our journey too. Before returning to reality, school for Aya and Gabriel, and work for us. We treated ourselves to a short escape. It was time for us to breathe and recharge with a short vacation, a special family vacation for us.
Even after all these years and the memories still remain. From the beauty of the landscape, greenery surroundings and the refreshing atmosphere lingers in my memory. And while waiting for our tour guide and shuttle van, I took time to stroll and appreciate the calm and beauty all around me. Nature really provides us a sense of peace and time to relax.
They really took care of the place and I was amazed by the towering pine trees that made the scenery more calm. It is situated at Mt. Talomo's base, the park, is a sanctuary for nature lovers. And everywhere we turned, the landscape was a field of greens and the flowers in full bloom.
A must indeed escape from the city and reconnecting with nature was exactly what we needed. There are also rooms available for visitors and can stay to enjoy the scenery longer.
We couldn't leave without striking a pose at the iconic 'I ❤️ EDEN' sign that was surrounded by nature's beauty.
Our tour began with a guide who welcomed us with a smile and introduced the highlights of Eden. We have a shuttle that will let us explore the whole park and with our friendly tour guide. The tour guide shared information clearly in every detail she shared and with excitement. Especially how she interacts with my daughter. She really knows how to deal with kids and Aya listens to her.
A fun and challenging for us and Aya couldn't wait to explore and wants to win in the maze. But Gabriel always tricks her and give a wrong way. We had a lot of laughs as we took on the twists and turns.
The big playground was a perfect us we soaked up the sun. We let the kids enjoy every moment. Aya and Gabriel were laughing and it was contagious. I'm happy to see them enjoying that moment. And I was too, I felt like a kid.
It was fun way to capture a special family moment by posing in this beautiful giant frame.
One thing that made our tour unforgettable, that our tour guide added fun and effort by suggesting poses. She made sure we had great group and individual shots, and thanks to her. She asked for my phone and captured moments we’ll treasure. And the result was great. Thank you so much!. And she did so well. We have great photos and now I share them with you guys.
Who has a different pose in the photo? And it's me, 😁
While making my blog and looking through the photos, I couldn’t help but laugh at all the stolen snaps. But I chose these moments to share with you guys. Eden Natures Park wasn’t just a place we visited. It was our experience that reminded us how refreshing it feels to pause, pose, laugh and reconnect with nature. Those memories still remain and we create a beautiful moments shared in a beautiful park.
We wrapped up our amazing day with a quick snack before boarding the shuttle. With a last look at the beautiful park, we said our goodbyes to the beautiful park for wonderful memories.
