With a bit of Jun Jun charm they finally allowed us access to Maria Cristina falls in Iligan City. This waterfall was ridiculously big and holds an amazing secret too! Story Loved It, so did we!

I was a student for a year at Mindanao State University (MSU) as a exchange scholar from my country in Malaysia way back 1968. I never thought of visiting Maria Cristina Falls! I don't know why? It was only in 2018 that I visited the place due to the persistent encouragement of my grandchildren. It was majestic indeed.

Hi Jay, Sacha and Story. I am thrilled you were able to see these particular waterfalls. I was there on New Years Eve 2019 on our way back from Zamboanga del Sur to Davao. It was a long drive but I insisted we stop there. It was closed then but I was able to convince them to allow us to visit. It is amazing. My daughter Zoa had turned six and was also fascinated by the cave full of bats 😊. Thanks for sharing and have a safe trip back to Surigao. This was clearly worth the stop. Thanks JunJun.

Thanks for visiting Iligan City, a small but perfect city to live in. I am from Batangas, spent my childhood in Tibiao Antique, and finally settled in this wonderful city now I called my homeplace. Maria Cristina Falls is one of the many waterfalls in the city, other famous falls nearby are the Tinago and Mimbalut falls. Maybe on your next visit, you can stop by the Timoga spring pool. I hope you enjoyed your walks at Hinaplanon esplanades and your daughter enjoyed the river view and the fresh air. The stopover at one of my favorite coffee shops at Solana is just perfect too and it's actually just a walk away to one of the best state universities in the Philippines, the MSU-Iligan Institute of Technology. Maybe a sumptuous lunch of Lechon and hanging rice (called puso!) and a swim in ice-cold mineral water like a spring pool at Timoga will complete your next visit. Daghan salamat sa pagbisita in one of the safest cities in Mindanao, the Iligan City.
