Biggest Pineapple Farm


Bukidnon, is the place where the biggest pineapple farm in the world. It is only here that you will find a classic golf course in the middle of the plantation. Mangima Canyon (just like the Kennon Road of Baguio City ), Mt. Kitanglad (although it a dormant volcano it was declared as a protected area under the category of natural park), Monastery of Transfiguration (you can have your retreat here), Pinamaloy Lake (great for picnic. It has a guitar shape), Lake Apo (it is an 85-feet lake. It’s nice to do fishing here). Recently, Bukidnon celebrated the Kaamulan (gathering) Festival in Malaybalay. During the said festival participants describes or presents the 7 tribes of Bukidnon. Photo credit by: outsidebound

This is true! Great if you could show a part of the plantation. I remember in the mid 60's, on route to Malaybalay from Cagayan de Oro, we used to pass thru the plantation and it was just amazing. There was no golf course at that time and even the road was not asphalted. I'm planning for a vacation this year, and will certainly stay in Bukidnon and see the golf course ...
