When you were in Bohol and you did not see the Chocolate Hills you were not really in Bohol. This product of nature really looks great and it’s not only a monument for Bohol also for the whole Philippines. At the Visitor-Center you have the chance to walk about 200 stairs, then you have a nice view from upstairs and there you can also see that they have many of this hills!

It is a combination of natural history and cultural museum. An entire section is dedicated to the rehabilitation of the old church buildings damaged during the earthquake. There are unique exhibits from excavations around the island yielding insights into Bohol's past. We went there before the opening of the upper gallery. I'd be interested to go see again to see what's new.

If you are sort of a daredevil then going to this place in Bohol is a must! Danao Adventure Park offers caving, zip-line, rappelling, kayaking and other high-adrenaline activities like my favorite, the plunge (a canyon swing adventure that calls for you to free fall for over 45 meters before being launched into a pendulum swing, 100 meters wide). Note: This ia not for the weak-hearted ones.

As a thunderstorm passed over , our private Bohol Day Tour stopped into the Bohol Tarsier Conservation Area , after visiting other local tourist attraction Bohol Tarsier Conservation Area ... is a protected forestry park , for the tremendous project in the preservation & husbandry of Tarsiers Tarsiers ... are a cute , little , tree dwelling primate , with instinctive large eyes that help with it’s nocturnal instincts by maximise the available night lights Some other interesting fact about the Tarsiers • Tarsiers eyes are heavier then their brains • Tarsiers have the biggest eyes of all mammals - compared to their body size • Tarsiers are carnivores- watch your fingers ???????? The forest like trees in this protected sanctuary , are populated with nocturnal insects , that make up the Tarsier's diet Disappointedly on the day we visited , as still heavy raining ... plus being near midday ... understandably the little Tarsiers were hiding under the foliage Through this conservation area , are the goat-track sealed walkways , used to observe the Tarsiers from ... with conservation staff spotters , helpfully directing visitors to the hard to find Tarsiers Totally worth it Would have liked to have taken better photos ... not easy with the rain & iPhone
