Bohol is one of the best tourist destinations in the Philippines. It is best known for its beautiful hills – the chocolate hills, tarsier, and white sandy beaches in Panglao. But did you know that there is more to Bohol than the attractions mentioned above?

Bohol Waterfalls that are must visit

 

As a nature-rich province, it is not shocking that magnificent waterfalls lie around the island. In this blog post let me guide you on a waterfalls adventure around Bohol. (We visited the waterfalls during the summer of March 2016 when the temperature hits around 48-50 degrees so you might see little water in the falls. All information is updated on August 24, 2022.)

You have been to Bohol and wanted to come back, but aside from the beach, you have nothing else to do.  Or you wanted to visit Bohol but feels like having atypical tour. How about taking the unusual Bohol tour in the southeastern part of the island. You can trek at The Alicia Panoramic Park or visit Candijay, Bohol a 4th class municipality and is 92km. away from Tagbilaran City.

I love the outdoors and especially nature. I like both mountains and sea but I have a special connection with trees and mountains. I love the peacefulness it brings and the feeling of life in it.

Highest Peak in Bohol - Mayana Peak in Jagna

I go to nature to be soothed and healed and to have my senses put in order. – John Burroughs

I am not a professional mountain climber but the past months it has been filled with trekking and mountain adventures. This time I discovered that the highest peak in Bohol is not one of the chocolate hills but is a peak located in my hometown Jagna. Together with friends, we climb Bohol’s highest Peak the Mayana Peak

Calamay is a sticky sweet delicacy popular in the province of Bohol especially in the town of Jagna in which I am proud to say my homeland.

 

Upon hearing that my hometown will celebrate the ever first Jagna Calamay Festival, I was overjoyed. At last this is it, a Festival we can call our own.

To celebrate the calamay as part of Jagnaanons way of life, the very 1st Jagna Calamay Festival was launched. This was made possible by the Jagna Local Governement Unit and the original calamay makers of Can-Upao, Business and Civil Society Organization.

One Monday afternoon sissy, April (my sister from another mother) and I decided to take a deep in the new resort in our little town in Jagna, Bohol. There are several resorts in our place but not as great as this one.

Cliff Haven Resort and Restaurant

 

The resort is located in Larapan, Jagna, Bohol just a kilometer away from Jagna Business Center (Public Market). Amenities include a swimming pool, wifi, restaurant and a cafe shop. No entrance fee but 200php for those who will be using the pool with free drinks. The place is not that big but it is peaceful.

As mentioned in my blogpost– Jagna Festival: Sinoog Estokada a War Dance I have some things in mind not just about the Sinoog Estokada festival but to our Jagnaaon culture.
My goal for this post is a call to everyone to help preserve the culture we have and let the next generations witness the beauty of Jagnaaonon culture.

1. There are 33 barangay’s of Jagna. Three (3) well established private highschools, a bunch of public highschools and a number of public elemenatry schools but why are there only 5 participating contingents?

I have been blogging like 5 years (3 years in this site). It has been my dream to write things about my hometown, share it to you and let you know that there is more than chocolate hills, Adventure Parks and white beaches in Bohol, that if you just go an extra kilometer particularly southern part, you will discover a lot more. To start with let me introduce to you my home town’s festival, The Sinoog Estokada.

To start off this article let me share to you the town where I came from. I am a native of Bohol particularly in the town of Jagna found in the East side of Bohol and an hour drive from the City of Tagbilaran. Like any other towns in the province, people basic means of living are farming and fishing. There are also few who made the very delicious and famous calamay in which many say is the most delicious among other makers in the province. Young Jagnaanon professionals are scattered not just in the country but all over the globe aiming to alleviate the status of their family.

It was one lazy Saturday afternoon and I was texting with my cousin Maitha about a summer getaway we are planning for the family. I mentioned her some  tentative dates which are April 27 or 28 2013 but then she refuses for the reason that she has plans for the said date together with an aunt on her dad’s side. I’m a cousin to her mom’s side. They will be watching a Dragon Boat contest somewhere in Tagbilaran and I was like, okay a dragon boat contest in Bohol.
