"the gladdest moment in human life is the departure to unknown lands"
8/4/2012 2 Comments Kalayaan Twin FallsThis is the third time I visited Kalayaan Twin Falls and sad to say, I was a bit disappointed. The first time I went there was year 1996 and only few tourists know the place. If I'll compare it now from before, the place now was mismanaged - maybe because of many guests and visitors coming especially during Lenten seasons. I don't remember what led me going in Kalayaan Twin Falls this time- I just find myself driving nowhere to go, until I reached the place again. Well, that is a typical thing for me especially if I do nothing at home; and of course, if given enough time and money :) Truthfully, I would rather not recommend Kalayaan Twin Falls {now) because of the following reasons: 1. Place is not as clean as you expect. Yes, it's cheap. Entrance fee is only Php40 and cottages will range from Php150 to Php450) but the entire resort (for me) is very dirty. 2. No parking space.So if you have any plans of trying it, just park your car in the nearest Catholic Church outside the premise. 3. Overnight is not advisable. Even though there are lots of securities roaming around, still, a lot of drunkards as well even in daytime. 4. Lastly, bring off lotion. Prevention is better than cure - if you get what i mean. HOW TO GET THERE: By Public Ride: From Manila, you can take a bus going to Sta. Cruz, Laguna. You can just get in to one of those Laguna-bound buses along EDSA or go to the HM Bus terminal in Cubao (near Victory). That's about 3 hours ride, depends on the traffic. From the HM Bus terminal in Sta. Cruz, ride a PUJ going to Paete. Kalayaan is just about 20-30 minutes away from Sta. Cruz. Just tell the driver to drop you off along San Juan. San Juan is one of the Barangays of Kalayaan, Laguna. Primary landmark would be the Church on top. The road going up to where the falls is; it is a 5 to 10 minutes walk from the church. You may also take a tricycle from the place where the jeep will drop you off. Tricycle drivers are very nice so need not to worry that you will have to negotiate for the fare pricing unless you wanted the driver to be your tour guide as well.
