Oslob Getaway



Aside from meeting the Butandings, we decided to see what are the other destinations in the place.

We have heard that there was a waterfalls in the area.   

It's the Tumalog falls. 
It's not easy to get to the place.  You still have to ride a motorcycle or habal habal going to the waterfalls.
You have to ride the motorcycle that is found on the hi-way.
It would cost about 40 - 50 pesos.

Once you get there, you will have to hike or you can ask the motorcycle drive you directly to the entrance of the falls. 
The road going to the place has been developed.
It is very steep and if you are on a motorcycle, you have to be very careful and would have to hold tight.
This is also the reason why cars aren't allowed to go directly to the entrance of the falls since it's really hard to go back up.
Unlike the Kawasan falls, this place does not have any cottages or stores that you can buy food.  There is no restroom that you can change.
There is no entrance fee.


Once you see the falls, you would see how beautiful God's creation is.  It's a different kind of waterfalls.  It has like layers that the water would pass before pouring it all down.



We took a lot of pictures of the place and enjoyed the falls.



After enjoying the waterfalls for an hour, we then head back to the city.  We had our lunch there in one of the low priced eating place in the area.

We then walked going to the Oslob Park, Oslob Church and the Cuartel.
It's a 10 minutes walk going to the place from the City Proper.

We passed by their park which has a fountain but it't not currently working at the time and was not filled with water.

We then passed by the Oslob Church which was hit by fire way back in 2008.  It is the church of the Nuestra SeƱora de la Inmaculada Concepcion.  This church was constructed in 1830.  Beside the church is a watchtower.





In front of the church is the coast of Oslob and a small park.


Near the small park is the Panteon.  It is the site where the Spanish priest have their penitential rituals every 8 in the evening over a platform that  stood in the center.



This is one of the places that we would like to see in Oslob, the Cuartel.  It used to serve as barracks for the Spanish armies.








It is also the best place to have pre nuptial pictures.
