2 WFH Sisters and 1 Dog Sharing Our Travels in Bicol and Manila

The Paradizoo: A Garden Paradise and a Zoo in one at Mendez, Cavite



















                                                                                                                                                         
It seems that my lucky stars for travel are perfectly aligned since November because I have 
been going on out of town trips (half is sponsored) almost every weekend. I so love it! Last 
Sunday, together with a bunch of lady bloggers we visited two amazing parks - Paradizoo and Residence Inn both located at Mendez, Cavite. I feel like a child again. How I wish my Mom is with me because she loves gardening and my little nephew for the different kinds of 
animals he is always fascinated to watch on TV.



I went home totally mesmerized and cannot wait to share my photos to every sight inside these places. I also did not really expect the cold weather but definitely love it so much as well. I am super excited to share to you my experience and of coures the proof - these photos below to hopefully give you an idea where to go next in your to-visit bucket list 
especially summer is approaching.  I decided to create one post solely for Paradizoo because I got a lot of pictures really worth posting. 

Paradizoo is an 11-hectare home to different (pets and exotic) animals and a very-well curated gardening space for plant lovers. It also features a garden (vegetables & herbs) to those who loves to cook and even a spot where you can have your special events done.

Let me tell you what you will see inside:

Lovebirds Cage



We went inside a room full of dozens of colorful lovebirds. I had fun really while they come rushing to my hands full of feed they eat. Just be careful not to step on them.


I cannot count how many animals I saw actually. There were rabbits, camels, sheeps,  horses, wild pig, chicken, different breeds of dogs and a lot more. 




My task to you when you get there: find where the FIVE-LEGGED COW and the WHITE CARABAO. 


Flower Garden
Pardon me but I am more of a garden girl than into pets. These photos below would agree.





I was told that the maintenance of these gardens are a bit costly.  If only a lot of more people would come here to appreciate how are these examples of work of arts then it would not be a pity spending a pretty hefty amount of this. 





For events or maybe for your dream wedding, this igloo-inspired hall can give you one of the best relaxing atmosphere. The price for choosing this, is the majestic view of green lush trees, colorful flowers and the cold breeze of wind.




The Zing Ride
Saw this crew from a local tv show trying to film a few minutes of fun!




Butterflies & Blooms
For butterfly lovers. That time there was not much of these I saw, maybe this is not the season for them.




Perpetual Park Pet Cemetery
If you are looking for the final resting place of your favorite pet, this is the one for you. We were reading the names in every tomb  - Flappy, Jinggoy, Brownie et cetera were all there.


Bee Farm
We have an on-the-spot lecture from their resident bee lecturer. Learned so much about bees and its indispensable role to the ecosystem.


Of course what is a visit in Paradizoo without bringing a souvenir, they have lots for you! I am inviting everyone to come visit this wonderful place in Cavite which is only around 2 hours from Manila.




Btw from January 10 - March 24 on weekends, Paradizoo will host one of themost anticipated annual festivities in the field of agriculture as Paradizoo re-unfold “Power of Three" (floral, vegetable and agri-livestock fair). Join us from January 10 March 14 featuring an amazing Animal Parade, a gala for this year of the sheep.  See different breeds of sheep parade. Also develop and enjoy your understanding towards agriculture as you will learn the Best Practices in agriculture. They will exhibit and display farm produce, sale and auction of livestock (imported breeds of goats for milk and meat, sheep, several pig breeds animal feed, and a lot more). There will be briefings, discussions on breeding programs and free seminar on flower, vegetable and livestock care.
