Whether we like plants or not, there is no denying that gardens affect our mood in a positive way. Plants breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen, which makes it a good match for us!
Here we have a list of all the nice flower gardens in Cebu that you shouldn’t dare miss!
Sunflowers are my favorite flowers because they give us hope that if you keep looking at the brighter side, everything will bloom and fall into place. Naks! That means sunflowers remind me of new beginnings, better chances and happy thoughts only. Plus, isn’t yellow just the best color in the world? 😉
The entrance fee to the Garden is only 50 pesos per head, open daily from 8 AM to 5 PM.
How to get there
If you are from Cebu City, then going the garden can be quite a long trip of 3 hours. It is located in Sitio Alang-Alang, Mantalongon, Dalaguete. From the South Bus Terminal, hail a bus going to Dalaguete. Inform the driver or the conductor that you are headed to the sunflower farm so that they can drop you off where you can take another ride (habal-habal) going to the garden. Total budget is about 500 pesos back and forth.
Other places in Dalaguete that you should check out are the Mantalongon Highlands and the Casay Dalaguete Beach.

They also have some cottages so you could stay longer at the garden and enjoy the view and smell of nature. If you stay there for less than three (3) hours, you don’t get charged at all. However, if you want to enjoy the place while having those eats and chats for 3-4 hours, they charge you with a P500 fee which is already inclusive of the corkage).
If half a day of stay at the garden is not enough, you could stay overnight for P2,000 per night which is good for 2-4 persons. Not to worry on your snacks there as they also sell chips and some drinks.
