The country’s last frontier
up north, this island may
be hard to get to but the
rewards are its breathtaking
cliffs, the undulating green

Bukidnon
Though primarily known
for its pineapple fields,
Bukidnon’s varied topography
can make any visitor feel as if
they’re on a jaunt around the
world, with its green rolling
fields, rain forests, and wide
grasslands.
San Juan, La Union
A perennial favorite, La
