Go there for seashells butterflies jungle walks and the Tabon Caves an ancient burial site.
Baguio City
Situated in the heart of the Cordilleras and about 250 km north of Manila, Baguio City is blessed with a cool temperature all through out the year. A "must see place" away from the scourging lowland heat especially on the summer months of March to May. To most of the adventure seekers the city is the jump off point towards Baguio's nearby destinations such as Sagada in Mountain Province, The famous Banaue Rice Terraces in Banaue, Ifugao and Mt. Pulag of Kibungan, Benguet.

An hour or so ride away from Manila is Tagaytay, a picturesque city that surrounds (or almost surrounds) a lake that has a volcano that has a lake inside it. There are several ways to take advantage of this gift of nature. You can either have lunch or dinner (with a panoramic view of the volcano and lake) at one of the restaurants on the ridge and enjoy the view from there, or you can travel down the ridge to the lakeside, take a small boat to the volcano in the center.

Dumaguete City is the capital, principal seaport, and largest city of Negros Oriental. The city is nicknamed The City of Gentle People. Referred to as a university town because of the presence of Silliman University, six other universities and colleges, the city is a popular educational destination for students of surrounding provinces and cities in Visayas and Mindanao.
There are numerous attractions: some of the best dive sites in the world namely Apo Island and Sumilon Island; one of most diverse marine ecosystem in the World, - specially Apo Island's beautiful corals and marine life in this Marine Preserve managed by Silliman University.
Dolphin and whale watching in nearby Bais Bay, Spelunking in Mabinay Cave System, Hiking to the three lakes on top of Mt Talinis are just some of the sights one can visit to make your visit in Dumaguete complete.
Albay
One can’t get over how magnificent Mayon volcano is. It is one of a kind as it is the only volcano in the world to take the perfect shape of cone. This imposing volcano is the located at the province of Albay, around 16-hours away from Manila (north of Manila) by land, definitely a long way, but then, it’s worth the trip.
Caloocan
It’s neither a business district nor a mall district but there’s something charming about this city, maybe because of its historical roots or maybe because of the people who reside in the place. This makes the city attract a couple of its own visitors. People say that sometimes, quaint and low-profile cities of a country have their own unique charm and heritage that tells a new story about the country.
Davao Del Sur
Davao del Sur is one of the provinces in Davao. It offers a wide array of activity of things to do. A lot of things to do, a lot of things to learn and most of all, a lot of beautiful sites to see. Nature is definitely present here in Davao del Sur.
Davao Oriental
Waterfalls never cease to amaze me. Looking at powerful water splash mightily is really site to behold. It really makes you appreciate the glory of nature. It doesn’t hurt that it is a very scenic site to behold. Seeing it is even a little magical for me, because I remember all the stories I heard when I was a kid about mermaids hanging out in sites like these. If you want to get your share of breathtaking waterfalls, Davao Oriental is for you.
Makati
It’s the weekend, and you’re sitting in your share wondering why somehow, it doesn’t seem complete. Perhaps you haven’t been to Makati. Even as I sit in a café’ somewhere in Makati and watch the people prance about to whatever appointment it is they are headed to and view all the modern, glass buildings like GT Towers and The Enterprise Center surrounding the streets, I get a taste of the charm of the energy-driven city.
Misamis Occidental
Waiting for Christmas as well as Christmas Eve is just as fun. Christmas shopping is always a joy to do and seeing intricately decorated Christmas decorations all over the place is something I always look forward to. Seeing relatives and friends which you hardly see throughout the years is another thing that most people look forward to.
Indeed Christmas has a place is the hearts of most people. If you want to experience a unique kind of Christmas, you ought to visit this city for Misamis Occidental is the Christmas capital of Mindanao.
Occidental Mindoro
It’s amazing how the Philippines doesn’t run out of nature’s wonders. Even if the country adapts itself to technology (The Philippines is the texting capital of the world), you don’t erase the fact that the Philippines originated as a tropical island and has a lot of nature’s wonders to offer. Thus, having a fulfilled vacation in the Philippines will really relax you and recharge you.

Quezon
The Philippines is related with quite a number of Quezons- there’s President Manuel Quezon, the first president of the Philippines, there’s Quezon City, and then, at the south of Luzon there’s Quezon province. Just a little clarification, Quezon province is different from Quezon City. Though not quite as famous, Quezon has a lot of things to offer for its visitors.
Zamboanga
I often call Zamboanga City “mini Spain” (something I call Ilocos), because it is one of the most Spanish-influenced part in the Philippines. Despite the strong Spanish influence, its people have taken what they have learned from the Spaniards, localized it and made it their own. Going here is a cultural, and historical experience. You’ll soon learn that the language of the people here, Chabacano, resembles the Spanish language, but is semi-localized.
Zamboanga Sibugay
The area of the Zamboaga is outside the typhoon belt area and the weather being quite warm most of the time. But just to be sure, it’s always wise to check the current weather conditions before visiting. Or bring a jacket and an umbrella, just in case it rains.
