Tagaytay is one of the coldest cities that I have ever been to. It is a place that anyone can consider as an alternative to Baguio as it becomes more populated during the holidays. This is a picture taken from during a retreat that I went to back in 2022. There took place what I easily could call "one of the best days of my life." The place that we went to is called CCT Tagaytay Retreat and Training Center. Although it was only for a 2 day and a night, I was able to capture the serenity of nature as it landscaped huge christmas-y trees (that I do not know the name of). And the breeze of the cold season that whooshed on everyone's faces just made the experience a hundred times much better.
It is the perfect destination place for everyone who is looking for an outdoor/indoor recreational activity site. My friends (whom I just met that very same day) and I were able to participate in fun exercises and games that would just make use of the entire grass-field as wide as 2 football stadiums.
Take note that there were over 200 students and adults in the entire site, yet the place would still be for us even if we laid down each of our own tents. The view was just so captivating, that it made it difficult for some of us to focus on the goal and what the marshals were trying to instruct us. Running and laughing across this giant along with your close friends just hits different. After we exhausted ourselves out, there was an entire outdoor amphitheater that we could rest on. Not to mention a pool that could fit a hundred. You bet we didn't let the opportunity to have a night swimming pass by.
After the fun and games and relaxations, of course, there is a place that huge groups could dine in.
Man, the buffet was as good as it can get with their diverse cuisine. I'm a big-eater, but still, I had more than enough to eat and I was able to replenish the energy I had exerted earlier that day.
On day 2, we were free to explore the rest of the retreat center's vicinity and I woke up early in the morning just so I can observe at peace by myself. It turned out that I was not the only one who had the idea, but the feeling of healing is still there.
Truly a magnificent sight to whoever lays their eyes upon the beautiful nature established here in CCT Tagaytay. A perfect place to create unforgettable moments and memories. It's almost 2 years since I've been there. I wonder how nostalgic it would be for me to once again step foot in that wonderful place.
