"Sometimes the most beautiful things are just around us. Sometimes we appreciate things, limited only to our naked eyes. Most of the time, we focus on what is already there. Only to discover that beautiful things do'nt happen by accidents or coincedences. They are adventures yet to happen." -author's note
This insight was my my feeling and realization after my adventure and travel to Busay Ubos, Bago City.
Busay Ubos will mesmerize you and captivate you. When you feel like the buzz and load of traffic in the city that gets under your skin and you need a place to chill out and a moment of peace with nature, Busay Ubos is one of the affordable yet worthy to travel into.
The cool breeze and gushing of water will make you feel refreshed and relaxed too. `
It's stunning and uncontained beauty will bring you a sense of peace and relaxation as it is being
surrounded by green plants and red rocks.
If you like trekking and just starting to hike or go into an adventure trek, this one is for you too. Since you need to hike 15-20 mins atleast, which includes crossing the red river bank.
CROSSING THE RIVERBANK
The hike is not that difficult or unsafe. Just be careful since it is slippery. All the tiredness and cramps on your body will be gone when you arrive and see its amazing beauty.
And if you are a person who likes to travel alone, with friends and loved one's Busay Ubos is one of a must that you should check out in going to Bago City.
