| ![]() Tinago Resort Rises Again The Tinago Mountain Resort is back in operation. It is now run by the city government under lease from the new owner, Land Bank of the Philippines. City Council Tourism and Beautification Committee Chair Moises Dalisay, Jr. has penned the resolution on the collection of charges from resort visitors to help cover maintenance and operation expenses. The city government is paying P10,000 monthly for the lease of the Landbank-acquired property. Specific rates will be P10 for the entrance fee, P40 for the use of chairs and tables, and P10 for the swimming pool. The city has already collected P15,000 to P20,000 a month from the current entrance fee imposed by the city government on those who visit Tinago Mountain Resort. The Tinago falls is 240-feet high. Its cold waters cascade beautifully into a deep and calm basin-like pool which appears like a blue-colored lagoon. It’s located in Ditucalan, some 13 kms. from the city proper. The trip takes all of 40 minutes to reach by car on an uphill climb through rugged and winding mountain roads. c/o Alingatong | |||||||||||

| ![]() At a glance, you would think this is a scene from a lake in the U.S.A. If so, you're fantasizing too far. It's right in Iligan City. This beautiful lagoon belongs to the Mabuhay Vinyl Corporation (MVC). It is located on top of a hill within the Mabuhay Vinyl Corporation plant site in Fuentes, Iligan. The small park rimming the lagoon offers a vista of color and life. | |||||||||||
