"It's a park with a section showcasing houses from different indegenous people. In the center, there's a place where you can rent bicycles for children. Right outside, are tons of fruit vendors where you can eat them fresh (or frozen).
We bought a tupperware of frozen durian (PHP 350.00) and flavored ice candies."

I enjoyed seeing the different cultures, especially their houses. I also liked the idea of selling handmade souvenirs to guests."
