La Mesa Eco Park



          

It's a date with nature, our weekend theme as we visited the La Mesa Eco Park located right in the heart of the city. In spite of the insanely polluted environment of the city, there's this place were you can be surrounded by tall trees and breathe fresh air! Eco Park is located in Quezon City with its aim to promote the greens even in the busiest parts of the country.

As you can see the above above pictures, there are tons of activities to do in La Mesa Park. They also have zip lining, boating and a place for picnics to enjoy with your friends and family. We mostly did the walking though because what I really wanted was just to enjoy it as organic as it is; to walk its pavements, breathe fresh air, indulge in the sights around me in a relaxed state. And boy, the simplest things indeed are the best things.

Foods

Foods are available for cheap yet it will definitely satisfy your tastebuds! We had a simple barbecue rice served on top of a banana leaf. My friend had lomi as we were rained over during our visit. Both priced for less than a hundred pesos, it had made our tummies full and happy. 






Going to the water reserve

This is the stairs that leads you to the La Mesa Dam Reservoir. Taking pictures ain't allowed in this area so just look forward to your actual visit for the grand sight of the dam. 




We were rained on

As I enjoyed our walk in Eco Park, I can"t help but wonder how it will be had we preserved the greens around the busy cities as well. Had we planted more trees, we could have been having the best of both worlds; Nature and technology combined.
