This is Sam's Agritourism Park that we visited today. It is located about 5 km away from the city center. I first saw this posted in social media just before pandemic hit. When restrictions have been lifted and the park opened again, we have planned on going. It took more than a year in the making but it finally happened today.
This is my #MarketFriday entry for this week and this is hosted by 
Thank you also for #SublimeSunday by 
Animal horns or skulls like the ones on the wall by the window of the registration hut are common sight that one can see here in the region.
When the sign said "on the rocks" it literally meant it for the park is built on the rocks. It's not advisable to come here and be under the influence of whiskey or whatever alcoholic beverage though. This place is rocky.
From town, we took a cab going to Sam's. The driver don't know where it was and we didn't know too but I know the general vicinity where it is as per Google map. I told the driver to just keep an eye on the right side of the road for a sign. Everyone is on the lookout as we were nearing the area. Glad we didn't miss the small sign. It was the taxi driver who saw the sign right away.
It's another 500 meters or so from the main highway to where the park is. Signs are placed every 100 meters directing you. I was surprised that there were twists and turns so you definitely will get lost without the signs.
Once there, register and pay at the registration hut which is located at the entrance. We paid Php100.00 (USD1.79) each.
Although the park may seem small there are so many things to see and lots of climbing over rocks and stairs. There was even a wall where one can climb which I did.
It is interesting to see different sculptures and rock formations that have been transformed. Everywhere you look, every turn is a surprise. Some are bigger than life and some are life size.
There is a place for refreshments and snacks. I had to order halo-halo, a cold and sweet snack consisting of crushed ice or shaved ice, sweetened banana, yam, jelly, beans, boba pearls, leche flan, fresh milk, sugar, etc. This costs Php40.00 here in the park.
I thought there were a lot to see already but it seems those who owns or manages the park didn't think so for there are still ongoing installations being added to the place just like this eagle still under construction.
This is a park where everyone can have fun. It is instagrammable and definitely a place worth visiting.
Sam's Agritourism is located along k.m. 5 Asin Road, Baguio City. They are open from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. They don't require reservation now so you can just walk in. It is best to go early so as to avoid overcrowding. The place has cramped walkways and narrow trails all over the place that's. When we got there, there were a few visitors already and more have arrived that's why the place suddenly became busy. Good thing we covered almost everything by then.
This is one happy lion that I saw. You can actually take photos beside these sculptures, inside the mouth just like the monkey where there is a path that leads to the its mouth, or like this lion where you can climb to the top of its head.
That's me climbing the wall. I was already sweating and my shirt was wet by this point. I didn't realize it was that warm that time. After climbing down the wall, it's when we decided to take a break.
Note that caution is definitely a must. One have to be watch their heads or their footing for one wrong step can be dangerous. Lots of pointy things at the park. All in all, it was an enjoyable visit.
