MUST VISIT SPOTS IN TAGAYTAY

1)Sky Ranch Theme Park

Located near the famed Taal Vista Hotel, Sky Ranch is one of the Tagaytay tourist spots you must make time to visit. Adults and kids at heart will enjoy the rides, good and family-friendly ambiance.The park is small and the majority of the rides (but not all) are catered for kids. This is a good place for families.

2) People's Park in the Sky

Located on top of Mt. Sungay, the highest peak in Cavite, People’s Park was part of a mansion commissioned by the former First Lady Imelda Marcos. In 1981 it was originally called the Palace in the Sky but with the downfall of Marcos in 1986, the mansion was left unfinished. It was then opened to the public as a park. Every time I go to the park I am amazed at the panoramic view of Batangas, Laguna, Cavite and even Metro Manila on a clear day. Try visiting the park after dark to see the lights of the Tagaytay City and SLEX.

3) Picnic Grove in Tagaytay

Similar to People’s Park, Picnic Grove has a viewdeck where visitors line up to take photos of the volcano and surrounding lake. With its cottages and hilly surroundings, this park ideal for picnicers as well as family gatherings. Picnic Grove also offers a lot of other exciting activities – horseback riding, cable car, Eco-trail and zipline.

4) Tierra de Maria

For the spiritually-minded, this is a great place for meditation and inner healing, Tierra de Maria is one of the famous Tagaytay tourist spots for its 50 foot tall statue of the Virgin of Manaoag. At the base of the Virgin you will find a wishing well with candle holders. The place also has a shrine that houses a smaller replica of the virgin and offers fish spa as a service.

5) Museo Orlina

This museum showcases the works of the world-renowned glass artist Ramon Orlina, a skilled pioneer of glass sculpture. Museo Orlina also features other artists working in a variety of media aside from glass. For some light refreshments the museum has a coffee shop on the roof deck.

BULALO

Bulalo is a Filipino stew made from beef shanks and marrow bones. Bulalo is a light colored soup that’s made rich by cooking beef shanks and beef marrow bones for hours, until much of the collagen and fat has melted into the clear broth. The seasonings vary from chef to chef with some using only salt and black pepper while other variations call for patis, bay leaves or even garlic. But at its core, Bulalo a simple cattleman’s stew, best made in a large cauldron with whatever veggies are growing near by.

PILIPINYAHAN FESTIVAL

One unique festival in the islands is the Pilipinyahan showcasing the wide range of dishes Filipinos can cook out of pineapple such as the pininyahang manok (chicken cooked with pineapple chunks and pineapple juice). It is usually celebrated during the first week of May. Of course, the fiesta, as Filipino call their festivals, normally include street dancing and warm smiles contrasting the cool climate of Tagaytay. But the interesting element of the festival is how Caviteños creatively and diligently conceptualize their yearly parade of majestic pineapple-inspired floats. Come to Tagaytay, not just to experience the lively festivities Caviteños have to offer and THE city’s cool weather, but also to let your senses be filled with the inviting aroma of pineapple dishes prepared to make your mouths water with appetite!
