Bukidnon is considered by Filipinos to be the food basket of Mindanao. It is the major producer of rice and corn in the region. Plantations in the province also produce pineapples, bananas and sugarcane.

There are no seaports in the province, although there is an airport in Malaybalay City. The airport is currently closed. To get to Bukidnon, one must travel by land from Cagayan de Oro City in Misamis Oriental Province.

Two types of climate prevail between the northern and southern sections of Bukidnon, The northern part is classified as belonging to Type III, that is, there is no pronounced rain period but relatively dry during the months of November to May. In the southern portion of the province, the climate is classified as Type IV with no dry season. The driest area is Baungon, while the wettest is the Calabugao plain. The climate is relatively cool and humid throughout the year.

The average annual rainfall is 2, 800 millimeters (112.5 inches). Just like in other parts of the country, rainfall is more pronounced from June to October compared to other months of the year. February to April are the drier months.

Temperature ranges vary with elevation. In areas lower than 500 meters above sea level (m.a.s.l.), the recorded temperature range is between 20°C to 34°C. Areas with elevations greater than 500 m.a.s.l. would have temperatures ranging from 18°C to 28°C.

Relative humidity also varies with elevation, with those above 500 meters having relative humidity of about 80%, while areas lying below 500 meters, 65-7 percent. Thus, the Malaybalay-Impasug-ong area and those around the volcanic cones approximate semi-temperate conditions and can support the cultivation of highland tropical crops.

Based on the records of climatological stations within and near the province, lithology and land form, three (3) agro-ecological zones are identified. One covers the mountainous eastern side (Central Cordillera) which is generally wet, with rainfall of about 2, 340 mm to 4, 000 mm per annum. Another covers the high altitude volcanic plains, the Malaybalay-Impasug-ong area and the footslopes of Mt. Kitanglad and Mt. Kalatungan. These areas have an annual rainfall in the range of 2, 490 mm to 3, 680 mm. The third zone covers the south-central and the north-western parts of the province, with elevations of less than 500 meters, relatively dry with mean annual rainfall in the range of 1, 700 mm to 2, 600 mm.

How to Get There

There are no direct fllights to Bukidnon from Manila. Philippine airlines has 3 daily flights from Manila to Cagayan de Oro City and one daily flight from Cebu.

Bukidnon is 2 hours away by land from Cagayan de Oro City and 12 hours by sea from Cebu. Local Bus companies in Cagayan de Oro, such as the Bachelor Express, Tomawis, and many others, service this route.

This time of year is the time when the residents of Abu Dhabi starts to book travel tickets and holidays for their summer vacation; the Exhibition, which is organized by the Abu Dhabi Travel & Tourism Agencies Committee ATTAC, aims to give the 35,000 daily visitors to the Mall an opportunity to choose what’s best for them.

Some 25 travel agencies and airlines will be available in the Mall’s atrium level. Where customers will be able to book their flights on the spot. So if your one of those people who plans for a summer vacation this week you can book now your Argentina travel flight during the exhibition time if you wish to stay in this place for summer fun! How I wish I can book mine too back to my native land! Sigh… But just can’t right now ’cause its not my 1 month company vacation yet! Maybe this coming December if God permits. Hopefully!

The event will be heavily publicized through various media in addition to in-house advertising.

A towering, multi-tiered, multi-hued attraction accessible by three separate winding routes. Attractions here consist of huge, colorful dragon, a replica of the Great Wall of China, spacious balconies offering scenic views, souvenir shops, mini library with instructional materials, and dozens of escalating steps.

The Taoist Temple sits at the very heart of one of Cebu’s high-end subdivisions, Beverly Hills. The Taoist Temple is presently one of the major tourist destinations in Cebu City. As a matter of fact, a Cebu Tour is not complete without a quick visit to the taoist temple. But keep in mind that the Taoist Temple is set to have a 100th steps before you’ll reach the top. So if you want a taste of Cebu’s Chinese culture, visit the Taoist Temple in Beverly Hills, Lahug. Other than that, there were great things to enjoy at Cebu City, Philippines.

I have this photo somewhere in the place. As you can see, there’s a pool. It was not actually a pool. It was something like an artificial river where you can ride a boat ( the boat has a fare ). They will tour you around the place. Its quite interesting and adventurous actually. Other than this place, there were several highlights where you’ll really be amazed with it. I actually do enjoy the said adventure. I’ll be back here again soon.

So, if you plan to visit Dubai don’t miss out to visit this place. I’m sure you’ll really had a great and amazing time! Okay! That’s it for now ’cause I still have to check this weight loss pills for my Mom as she needs it ’cause she’s getting bigger nowadays and as per advice by our family doctor she must maintain her weight.

The park is situated at Rawis, Brgy. Guirang, Basey, Samar covering an approximate area of 840 hectares. Fascinating geological features abound in the area of the national park such as caves, hugs, limestone boulders, rockholes, weathered formation rocks and underground rivers.

The most prominent assemblage in the park is the cathedral-like caves, which are the Panhulugan I, and II, Sohoton and Bugosan. All the caves in the park are endogen caves in angular limestone cliff, which support the base of other crack system. It abounds with flowstones and dripstones. Two and a half (2½) hours motorboat ride from Tacloban City and two (2) hours ride from Basey proper can reach these tourist spots in Basey.

This was one of the Christmas views I catch it here in Abu Dhabi. Particualry, this was taken inside the Abu Dhabi Mall. I got several photos to share with you guys but I just have to go now ’cause I still have to check this Fenphedra that I happened to browse earlier this day. This might answer the needs I’m craving for! Have a great week everyone and advance Merry Christmas!…c”,)

8: 10 am sharp we live already Abu Dhabi bound to Dubai. It takes us 1 and half hour before we arrived on our destination. We first been to Dragon Mart. Dragon Mart is actually an establishments of wholesale tradings. Most of the sellers are Chinese people. The place is big and there were so many people who also been there searching for something to buy. The good thing in this place is you can buy a cheaper things that you want. But all of those might possibly made in China.

Around 2:30 pm we live Dragon Mart bound to The Dubai Mall. One of the newest and biggest mall in Dubai where the biggest aquarium resides. The Dubai Mall is one of the best malls I’ve been here in UAE. First time in my entire life I’ve seen a big aquarium equipped with different types of fishes. The aquarium is really amazing! Never got a chance to see an aquarium like this before even though Philippines has also got like this. The Mall is not yet fully finished ’cause there were several establishments who did not open yet. There were also several establishments who give a promotional products for free as they were just opening. Maybe a month from now all of the establishment might be open already.

I really got a great time in Dubai even just for a 1 day trip! Be back to their again soon! Watch out for more adventures I’ll gonna post it here. Have a great day everyone!
