aEMY'S WANDERLUST
"the gladdest moment in human life is the departure to unknown lands"
3/3/2012 0 Comments The Japanese GardenThe Japanese Garden is located along Lake Caliraya in Cavinti, Laguna. It is under the management of PNOC and it is open to public with an entrance fee of Php 10 for adult and Php 5 for the kids. If you have any plans visiting the park, I highly suggest to bring food because there's only one store inside the vicinity and it only sells limited junkies and sodas. The said 13 hectare park is suitable for family outings, company team buildings or simply just a get away from the very busy city like Manila. It is more accessible if you have a private ride. But if you don't have any, Php800 is sufficient enough for your transportation allowance (back and forth) if you'll be coming all the way from Manila. Please take note that tricycle from Lumban going up to Japanese Garden will cost you Php150 each for there's no regular trip going up. What i can advice is, just make a bargain with the trike driver to make it lower - i mean, the Php150 fare. The first time i went there, i was able to make "tawad" from Php150 to Php100. All you need to do is just to talk to them amicably and eventually, they will say yes. :)
HOW TO GET THERE: By Public Ride: Take a ride at the Sta Cruz-bound bus of HM Transit on EDSA Cubao or Green Star on LRT/Taft Ave. The bus will go through South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) and will exit at Calamba tollgate. Get off at the terminal in Pagsawitan, Sta. Cruz, Laguna then ride a jeepney with "Lumot" signboard. The Lumot-bound jeepney will take you directly to Lake Caliraya/Japanese Garden. (Note: There are few public transport/jeepneys that descend from Cavinti/Lake Caliraya. Please consider this when planning your trip.) A tricycle ride is available in Lumban Public Market but it will cost you Php150 going up and Php 30 going back. By private vehicle: Through South Expressway… Take last exit to Calamba, turn right to Calamba Junction towards Los Banos all the way to Pagsanjan Church. Turn left passing through to Palacol Bridge going toward Barangay Bagong Silang and start ascend to Caliraya Lake. Happy viewing :)
