Exploring and Bonding with Nature is very fun and enjoyable, we can relaxed ourselves and feel the freshness of the Place.
Today as part of my travel blog, I really like to take a tour in the river, mountains, plain areas or at the beach. If we talked about Province, the only wonderful views we can see are rivers and other Nature made views. Manticao river takes many parts and it travels a long way starting from mountainous areas going down to the sea. This river contains lots of springs and streams connected with each other and formed into a river. This place is located at the Municipality of Manticao in the Province of Misamis Oriental Mindanao Philippines. From Barangay Poblacion, it takes a few hours of traveling riding on a motocycle, tricycles, or any kinds of vehicles. The travel fair going in this place costs up to 20 Pesos Each. Manticao river contains lots of wonderful views and a perfect place for camping trips or picnics, in fact their are lots of people like to visit who came from far areas or Cities like Iligan And Cagayan de Oro City.
Walking adventure here is not quite easy because of the slippery road trails can be seen and found. This road trail leads to the river and the big roots are served as a ladder. It contains lots of peebles and sands and when there is a rain, this road trail will become slippery. The place is surrounded with wild grass and big, tall trees that is why it is very cool and relaxing in here even if it is already NoonTime.
After the road trail, this wide plains of Banana plants areas is also can be seen and found. Almost 400 banana plants according to the farmer planted here and the most interesting here is this area is near at the river. The soil composted here is very fertile because of the river that is why they decided to plant near at the place even if it is dangerous to the floods.
One of the tree that gives a shade and to make the place cool is the Balete tree, in fact in already grows many years ago. It grows at the cliff producing lots of leaves, wide branches and even big roots. Lots of wild animals like birds, wild cats and snakes possible lived here. It also helps to keep the dry soil intact and to avoid soil erosions due to big floods. Aside of that, big and wide acacia trees also grows and gives a great contributions of the place.
For many months has past, this areas was a quarrying site of the Local Government projects, but as big floods happened here, the site was completely back to normal views. Those areas were excavated are now filled with lots of sands and peebles and rocks. Aside of that, the water current also changes its routes and contains lots of deep water perfect for a swimming adventure. This site cannot be seen or directly hit by the Sunlight that is why it will be very perfect to do swimming or laundrying here all day.
If we talked about big rocks, this place also contains lots of it. This big silica rocks has washed away from mountainous areas of Manticao all the way down here. Because of the strong water current of flood, lots of big rocks washed away and some of it are crushed into tiny pieces.
Manticao river contains lots of wonderful views and as for other people who visited here, they said that it is Paradisiacal site. The proved is very clear because of the views and a perfect scape that everyone will really like and enjoyed. Until next post, have a nice and safe travel to everyone.
