Some places we visited are just too good that we hope to go back not just once but many times. Maybe it's not that we're dissatisfied from one time of visit. Maybe, depending on our mood or the ambiance of a place that we then think it's nice to go back again. Not just for one reason but a couple of reasons that we found it hard to determine which suited it. It could be because of the beauty of the place, could be the feeling you felt when you were there staying or just simply you love the place.

Banahaw is a Spring located not far from our town. Driving a motorcycle you can arrive there in just a minute. In fact, it can be reached on foot but maybe an hour of walking. It was that near that most of the villagers in our small village easily went there just like a neighboring house to them.  Maybe not because of it but because they just love the place to visit and like me, I feel the same when I was there once again for how many years that passed. Surprisingly, it was renovated like this time it was a real resort. Not like yesterdays' when we were young,  it was pure nature. 

Let's not talk about the past this time, okay? But just a short flashback, okay? Long ago, during our teenage years, probably many years ago. This place was surrounded with its original rock where it was its original form. It was like an untouched river where the old owner let the people go and swam. Well, it's a good thing that they developed it since when it was before, the water got dirty when too many people were here to swim. However now, no matter how many people will come here to swim it's hard to get dirty because under the water there are stones and under these stones, concrete materials are being placed. They just avoided the place where the water comes out or else this place will get drained. lol

What about this place? What makes this spring beautiful or worth visiting to enjoy your time here? Okay, I'm sure it's very obvious how beautiful the water is, right? From its crystal clear and clean characteristics, the water is very cold because it's a spring. Right under the ground, of course, you can expect colder water. Although,  it's not just about those but it's about how this establishment is helpful to the people.

When you enter this place before you can reach the water, the reception area and at the same time the room for rent if ever you'll stay there for long will welcome you. I'm not sure how much per night because most people are interested here to relax and enjoy themselves through the help of cold spring water.

Look, they have different styles of cottages so you're free to pick. Of course,  the bigger the cottage, the higher the price but from what I understand, the highest one costs 750 pesos or more or less 20 US dollars.

Well, if you go here alone or with just one person or maybe a small number. You can choose this small cottage next to the water. It's small but it's cute to use if you just want to enjoy the water and drink liquors maybe. 

The other cottage that is still big but has a lower rent like this one. Maybe because it's quite far from the water. This one as well like the first suits in going here with families. 

If you really have the money, go here. You don't need to bring anything, just money will be good. As you can see, in the reception area there is a store that is built. Whether you want to buy liquors or soft drinks or even water. They have it all there to offer and oh, they serve cooked food as well like in a restaurant. But if you want to eat fresh fish, you can also buy it here. The image above is a fish pond next to the spring. Of course, it was separated with a block but not the water. 

Here, you can grill the fish or maybe you want to cook it differently. You can ask the staff there to do it or do it by yourself. 

This part is wide in that children had been playing like tagging and then jumping into the water.

Well, I think the most important thing when going to a place like this is to make sure you can enjoy it. Now, in this part right here is where you can find enjoyment or entertainment.  This is the swimming area and jumping area. I saw a lot of kids were jumping here, you know kids but I don't think it's just kids but also adults. I am still enjoying jumping to heights above the water. 

Overall experience when I was there was awesome and I don't know how to explain but it really felt amazing to be here. The cold water, the environment surrounded with nature, and the feeling of being able to enjoy the place alone are the best. That's why I wanted to be here again and again because I think I just love this place. The environment and its surroundings are enough that could make me feel satisfied.
