Thursday Happy Feet: DAVAO - Eden Nature Park :)

This was my last vacation in Davao, May 2011. It' my grandma's side family reunion, held at GAP FARMING of Lolo Quinong. I was so last year so I forgot to post my experience. This Wednesday happy feet, I'll be sharing my trip to Eden Park at Davao.

WHAT: Eden Nature Park
According at their site:

A mountain resort 3,000 feet above sea level, Eden Nature Park is 95% man-made! It is a great model of how we can re-create nature and rebuild a lost environment.

Discovered sometime in 1971, the resort used to be a logged-over area covered only by a blanket of wild grass. Its potential was, however, readily seen by the owners as the property provided an imposing view of Davao City and the Davao Gulf.

Not long after, terraces were carved out of the mountain slope, and thousands of pine tree seedlings were planted. As the pine trees grew, they provided canopies allowing other trees and plants to grow and creating a secondary forest. Today, there are over 100,000 pine trees spread throughout 80 hectares, providing a refreshing backdrop to the various attractions in Eden Nature Park.

This is my first time to visit the LAND of PROMISE, this tagline was my lolo's idea. Mr. Quinong Villegas.

For my 2nd day in Davao, we visited Eden Park. It's a rainy morning though we got to enjoy the whole day. (bawal ang "KJ") hehehe! Buffet lunch and trailing :)

Here's some of our captured Happiness during our trip.
