Tagaytay, a place to visit, to cherish & to enjoy!




History of Tagaytay
Legend has it that the word “Tagaytay” came from “TAGA” meaning “to cut” and “ITAY” which means “Father”. A father and son were said to be on a wild boar hunt when the animal they were chasing turned and attacked them. As the boar charged towards the old man, the son cried “TAGA- ITAY”. The boy’s repeated shouts reverberated in the valleys of the ridge. Heard by the residents, hunters and wood gatherers, the cries became the subject of conversation for several days among the people in the countryside. In time, the place where the shouts came from became known as TAGAYTAY.

TRIP TO TAGAYTAY

Last december, my sister have to attend a wedding nuptial in Taal Vista Hotel. I decided to accompanied her and at same time, avail my membership complimentary overnight stay in One Tagaytay Hotel Suites. Together with my sister,mom, wife & son, we went there and enjoy every step of the way.It's perfect climate and clean fresh air. We side trip to different beautiful places such as the ever famous Mushroom Burger where we eat our lunch & bought a mushroom seedling which we still harvesting, Bag of Beans Tagaytay with branches in Greenhills, famous with their pies such apple pies. Rosso Cafe? yup!same as in Gandara but with cozy ambiance & nice over looking of the creek. Even also offer an overnight stay, only four rooms are available that I suggest you to booked first. we even went for a horse ride for my son to experience & me as well,I haven't ride yet a horse before. After the ride, wow! it feels good & self-fulfilling but at the same time, my buttock really ache! Lastly, we went to the famous Sonia's Garden in Alfonso,Cavite. A spa, restaurant, panaderia & country store. Paradise some may say. Unfortunately, we are not able to dine there coz its already fully booked. Maybe next time. It's long day, it's time to go back home. On the way goin down, we passedby a pineapple farm & bought pineapple as pasalubong.
Tagaytay is really a place to visit, to explore, to cherish and to enjoy. Can't wait to go back there this coming summer.
