People of Panay often associate Tibiao to bread because of the famous Tibiao bakeshop. But after reading this, you'll realize that there's more to be interested of to the said place. :) Tibiao is a town of Antique Province in the Philippines, blessed to have a very rich natural resources.
After our Malalison trip, we proceeded to this beautiful place and we conquered a wet, slippery and fun-filled adventure.
Thunderstorms were at its peak but turning back was a big NO NO! Our goal was to experience the "KAWA" spa and do Kayaking. We traveled almost an hour in a newly rehabilitated road which made our trip smooth flowing. But never expect to be that easy... I am talking about a mountainous place thus expect to have land falls anytime. :)
We didn't pursue the Kayaking since it was raining very hard but instead, we tried the "KAWA". What we were thinking before was its just nearby the main road but it proved us wrong. We walked a slippery trail for another 30-45 minutes. However, we didn't regret walking and the sceneries did not fail us.

I mean the log bridges. Haha. :) |
After an almost an hour walk through the rain, at last we arrived to this wonderful place!
|
The beauty of nature at its best. |
|
The handsome traveler at its best. Hahaha. :) |
Bugtong bato is composed of 7 wonderful falls but we only reached the 1st falls... for safety reasons. Hehe. But if you're more adventurous than us, climb the 2nd to the last falls during a rainy day. Hehe. :)
The waters were so inviting thus we didn't miss it.

The blurry us... an aerial view. |

To be far from the city buzzes was worry and stress free. The waters took away the negativities of the world.

That was one relaxing experience after a 2 day trip. We will surely come back to Antique and discover more of it. As mentioned, since it is a mountainous area, always expect some surprises. But we survived it!
In tibiao, you can experience Tibiao Fish Spa as well. :)
In summary, all that starts well shall end well. :)
This is the end of our 3 part Antique experience. Thanks and God bless, readers!
