A Glimpse of Negros Occidental (Part 3 of 3)

Our last day in Negros Occidental was specially alloted for the famous Campuestuhan Highland Resort in Talisay City.


But before that, we had a sumptuous breakfast in the hotel then we heard mass in the Cathedral.


We then checked out from our hotel and hired a taxi. There was a daily transportation from Bacolod to the resort which was around 150 per head. However, there was  misunderstanding with the hotel staff. So, we ended up hiring a taxi instead. This was actually a blessing in disguise because we still planned to buy some pasalubongs before heading to the resort.

First stop was the Negros Museum. This houses some great souvenirs. We bought tshirts, key chains and had this souvenir pic as well! Haha


After the souvenirs, we then went to Merci and Bongbong's. Negros has so much nice food to offer! As in!!!

The resort's next! The journey was not that near. And truly, there was no other public transportation aside from taxi. Gosh.


We arrived in a very wide resort. It was so full of people and from the entrance, you could really tell this place has sooo much to offer!


After paying the entrance fee and parking the taxi, we headed to their restaurant first. We need some energy and it's lunch time already! Haha


We were so happy the resort offers very delicious food too!


While eating, you could actually hear people shouting their hearts out as they zip through the long wire!

Okay, we have regained our energies and we are now ready to invade this place! Haha.

From then on, I would be describing a certain place and would just let the picture explain for you. Haha.

First up! Another I-was-here shot:


Then, to the kiddies part. Haha


We went to the hanging bridge as well. The top wire actually for the bike zip.


Then, we walked up to one of their cottages.


Here's the interior of the cottage.


Next up, the Bonita Huts. Actually the main reason I was excited to come here. These were designed to look like the houses in the Lord of the Rings. So nice! Each can actually accommodate a group of 4 persons!


There's also an ongoing construction of an Indian village. Take a look!


And after exploring this part of the resort, we went to this. Talk about childhood. Hah

After a day in the whole of this resort, we went to straight to the airport. We did not anymore stopped at El Ideal for their guapple pie. Huhu. On the positive side, well, there's a reason to come back then! Haha

It was a very fun 2-day journey on a once strange place that I ended up loving and missing. Til we meet again Negros Occidental! :)
