It is my first time to make a blog, which is I think we have no choice, we need a satisfying grades. For me making a blog is I didn’t expect at all. I have lots of thoughts in my mind, “what would I do?” or “where would I start?”. Since my family decided to have a road trip it is because kuya Michael from London arrived from Philippines he wanted to explore one of the tourist spots in Leyte, specially in Ormoc and then his fiance mommy Cecilia plan to visit first the Lake here in Ormoc which is the Lake Danao. Then I was suddenly realize that I have this project, a blog thingy then thats it I’m excited to go there and keep all the details of this place.
Lake Danao is a guitar-shaped on the island of Leyte in the Philippines. The reason for the cool air on this trip is Lake Danao’s geographical location. Lake Danao is considered as Ormoc City’s main natural attraction. It is covering an area of 148 hectares and is about 700 meters above sea level. The Lake that also includes the Amandawin mountain range is 18 kilometers northeast of Ormoc City, half an hour drive along the Milagro-Lake Danao and San Pablo-Tongonan roads.
According to experts, this lake is volcanic in origin like the popular Taal Lake in Tagaytay City. It is a depression produced by the Leyte Central fault, an active fault passing through the Lake area in Northern to Southern direction. Most rock formations that surrounds the lake are andesitica volcanic rocks.
You will witness the serene and beauty of the lake by traveling for about 30 minutes to 1 hour from the city proper. A terminal for jeepneys and multicabs bound for Barangay Lake Danao can be found near Ormoc City Public Market, just across Ormoc City Port.
Lake Danao National Park is the number 1 tourist destination in Ormoc City. There are some activities that you might enjoy when you have to visit this Lake. One of those are you can go swimming, boating, kayaking or fishing. You can also check the Lake Danao View Deck and enjoy sight seeing the breath taking view of the entire lake. You may also rent a floating cottage just like one of my pictures there. I enjoy the fresh air while beholding its totally virgin nature.
You must include this to your bucket list. A wonderful scenery and a breathtaking that you won’t expect!
