RAINFOREST PARK, PASIG
This Central Park is an eight-hectare land located at barangay Maybunga used for sports, leisure and educational activities. It includes a water park equipped with cabanas, cottages, kiosks and other resort facilities. In addition to this, there are camping grounds, sports oval, fitness gymnasium, multipurpose center and a forest reserve.

Recently facilities such as a butterfly pavilion, mini zoo, aviary, senior citizen's park, playground and an amphitheater were constructed at the rainforest park. 

Less than 6 kilometers away from Makati and Ortigas, there is a place called Pasig City’s Rainforest Park. The park technically has a water park theme but with a mini zoo inside.

We went for a jog at Pasig Rainforest Park, just a kilometer away from our house. After the quick jog under the shade of trees (a lot of trees!), we bought tickets to try their other attractions. 

For Pasig City residents, each ticket was just PhP 5 each. This was five times more expensive compared to last year when everything was for free.
