Bohol's Chocolate Hills! 🇵🇭

[@michaelmcknight2305]

The first time I went to Cebu I did what you are doing trying to visit as many places as possible like Bohol etc, I found it so exhausting and didn't get to enjoy it as much until I took a step back and slowed the pace down. I spent time with the people getting to know them and they all made me feel so welcome as they always do. I have been back many times and not only because it's a beautiful country but also the beautiful people

[@SunShine_sublime]

you can live cheaply in the philippines if you eat filipino foods most of the time,but if you are into westerners food then it's expensive ..... but the rent of the apartment is super cheap compare to a lot cities in the world like las vegas,1 br apartment will cost you now $1,500 it maybe more & in los angeles,it's more expensive for 1 br apartment it'll cost you $2K or more,it depends what area you @ ......

btw I'm from Bohol and studied Tourism but have forgotten the whole history of the place, just remembered like a whiff of it, so I searched it and came across this link with the closest historical content I could remember from what I've learned 4-5 years ago about the place.. 😁 hope it helps.. 😊

[@rome.u]

Love it when I see foreign content creators featuring landscapes, not always the beautiful beaches.

[@lazybuccaneer7683]

I was shocked when I went to philippines, I was used to brown desert for a long time and my eyes was just mesmerized by the color green. So much green.

[@alexcvp]

I got this info from their official site: Proclamation No. 1037 was signed to this effect on July 1, 1997 declaring the hills as a natural monument and that they are now covered under the National Integrated Protected Areas System (NIPAS) with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) as the lead implementing agency for its protection. Furthermore, the Philippine House of Representatives introduced House Bill No. 01147 on July 6, 2004 wherein it was reiterated that the hills are a national patrimony and geological monuments, penalizing their plunder, destruction or defacement, and for other purposes. Finally, on May 16, 2006, the DENR submitted the Chocolate Hills of Bohol to the UNESCO World Heritage for inclusion in the list of Natural Monuments because of its outstanding universal value, superlative natural phenomena or areas of exceptional natural beauty. Also, apparently, there have been incidents of mining and quarrying in these areas. I think that's why they don't let people (tourists) wander over the entirety of the Chocolate Hills like Osmeña Peak.

[@golfgunsandcocktailschannel]

That is good. 😃👍

[@sasanthilakmini8206]

Wow.... Let's goooo Api Yamuuu.. Stay Safe Travis ❤ from 🇱🇰

[@giannishen]

I can only say that you went at the wrong time! You only see mint chocolate! Chocolate Hills is located near Carmen in central Bohol Island. The hills covered by green grass will turn brown in the dry season and resemble chocolate, hence the name. It was nominated as a World Natural Heritage by UNESCO in 2006. In the movie "Harry Potter", the scene of the hero riding a broom over the top of the mountain was shot there. Due to the earthquake in 2013, the main viewing platform of Chocolate Hills was severely damaged and has not been repaired. Now tourists can only go to the second viewing platform to see Chocolate Hills, and the viewing effect is also less. There is a place to play aerial bicycles at a high place near the viewing platform. If you are brave enough, you can experience a flying bicycle on a high-altitude steel cable. 唉~只能說你去的時間不對! 你只看到薄荷巧克力! 巧克力山位於薄荷島中部的卡門（Carmen）附近，被綠草覆蓋的山丘在乾季會轉變為咖啡色，形似巧克力，因此得名。於2006年被聯合國教科文組織提名為世界自然遺產。 電影《哈利·波特》中主人公騎著掃帚飛過山頂的鏡頭就是在這裡取景的。 由於2013年的地震，巧克力山的主觀景台嚴重受損且尚未修復，如今遊客只能到觀景台來眺望巧克力山，觀景效果也遜色一些。 在觀景台附近的高處有一個玩空中自行車的地方，如果你膽子夠大可以在高空鋼索上體驗一回飛翔的自行車。

[@alherx999]

No, it's not actually wrong season. This season is supposed to be brown hills, because it is supposed to be dry summer season instead of raining. Unfortunately, it's mint green because it's raining recently,due to climate change.

[@giannishen]

@@alherx999 Yes, you proved that the seasons are out of order, so the time is also wrong！

[@daphbacus9256]

Nice to see Bohol through your videos, miss that place, I've been going there often before the pandemic for work. If you want nature trails and such, there is a place in Alicia, Bohol (Northern Part). It is called The Alicia Panoramic Park (TAPP), a great place to hike and to see the natural views of the mountain ranges. The views of it can be seen on the road. Great vids keep them coming.

[@AlllAboutYou]

Don't rush on the road, I'm more concerned about your safety than vlogging! Good thing you slow down :) Because of the earthquake that hit the island 2-3 years ago, some of the hills got deformed but overall it was a fantastic sight. You came at the right season where the mounds are starting to get it's brown color

The 2-kilometer long stretch of mahogany trees in Bohol is located between the towns of Bilar and Loboc. Inside the forest, you’ll never see the sun. That’s how thick Bilar man-made forest is. If you’re planning to explore the forest and enjoy the quiet, take an extra sweater with you. Inside the forest, the temperatures are much lower. Bilar-Loboc man-made Forest was planted around 50 years ago as part of a reforestation project. It’s a beautiful place for both locals and tourists to relax and reconnect with nature.

[@westerntrend]

Philippines has only two season, it's rainy season and sunny season.. The only difference from any other places is that these two season could occur 5 to 6 times in a single day.

[@jay-j6581]

Hi Travis, did you know that you can also rent and do ATV biking and cross along the chocolate hills. If you don't mind, please try also the river cruise in Loboc river or kayaking. You will see ethnics who will welcome you and will give you some presentations. And in the end of it, you will see waterfalls and have some zip line over the peak. Try also Panglao island in Bohol, and see dophins and whale sharks while the sun is just rising up over the horizon. It's the perfect time to see them because of the sunlight that will glitter through the water. Many people will assist you there.

Hi Travis i am catching up on your vlogs (watching your Sri Lanka ones at the moment). You must try Mango Shake while you are in Cebu!! If you do please let us know how you like it. Also try fresh fruits while you can Mango and Star Apples aka KaiMito... When you come back from bantayan island and would like to experiance local... visit a town called Bogo... its maybe 30mins away from the ship port heading back to Cebu. Go to a place called Pantalan (Pan-Ta-Lan) there is a local eatery there and you can experiance the simple life of the locals and eating delicious and afordable foods.
