Life is the sum of experiences that we encounter as go through life. Day to day to struggles and triumphs are experienced by all of the world's creatures. As human beings, when we encounter a challenge, we have freedom to choose how to react. Every decision that we make leads us down another road. We will never come to exactly the same crossroads. Every decision the we make has significance. The tiniest choice that is made reverberates throughout the entire universe.

BLUROZE FARM, Park and Wildlife: Tranquility and wellness!

One of my favorite spots in the Philippines is really, Batangas. When I heard outing, beach bumming and out of town, I always wishing it would be in Batangas. So when my friend Mitch texted me and invited me to go with her in Batangas to get her dog, I told to myself that I would not pass this chance.. kahit naisip ko baka gawin lang niya kong tagabuhat ng doggie niya, I did not mind. Eh sabi niya all expense paid pa, eh makakatanggi pa ba ko, mapilit siya. hahaha!

It was a mere day tour and it only took us nearly 2 hours to get to Lipa city proper where we will meet the pet owner couple of her Shih Tzu. (I will share the whole story on my next post).

I really wanted to do something different while in Lipa, so I persistently asked the couple about somewhere interesting to visit in the city which is also fit for the budget.

The reception area

{wish finally granted}
Since we cannot get in to San Benito Farm (w/c is my first option to visit while in Lipa) we end up at BLUROZE FARM instead. After about 15 - 20 mins ride in tricycle from the city, we finally saw the sign of the said farm. You have to shell out P100 for the entrance fee and surprisingly, Michie mich (dog's name - haha, sinunod sa name ng owner) has also required to pay an entrance fee, same charge as human! Ganon... I didn't get it ha..But guests have options to have additional P75 if they want a tour with regular meal and drinks and additional P50 for sandwich and drinks.

Breathtaking landscape

Waiting area close to reception

This was my first time in Lipa City. As I've said, Batangas for me is one of my favorites however, I considered it perfectly for getaway like bumming only and when you say Lipa City, it is not somewhere I’m really fond of visiting because as far as I know, it is a town in Batangas where there are no interesting beaches to enjoy to. I only have in mind about Lipa is Mayor V. She's running this city right? (napaka naive ko noh). What I didn't know is that Lipa has something more to give.

Weather abruptly change..sana tuloy tuloy na ang paglabas ni haring araw!

So visiting Bluroze farm is out of the plan...

Actually, I was more interested to know what this "San Benito Farm" could offer to its guest since this is overrated from the time it was launch to public.  Bluroze was just suggested by the couple since we cannot afford the entrance to San Benito just for a few hours visit.  Maybe, we'll get back to this farm and when there's alot of time.


BLUROZE is a place located at the heart of Lipa City that recognizes the power of nature to heal, nourish and revive the mind, body and spirit from the rigors of everyday life... 

Fave spot in Bluroze

Lipa has a variety of places and sites to offer.  From dusk till dawn, it can never fail to excite anyone. First on the list nga eh etong farm na to. 

Bluroze offers the following:

Day trip and Field trip Packages.
They also have function rooms and cottages. For their rooms and cottages, it can accommodate maximum up to almost 30 persons.  While the function rooms can be used in any event venue can accommodate up to 500 persons.

ang mag -amo, lol

Nakaka excite! First time ito. So we already wander the place around with our very very cute Shih Tzu.

Although we haven't seen any chicken crossing that time

Additional info I gathered, The name Bluroze is derived from the names of the spouses, Engr. Benedicto Luistro Umali and Zenaida Rodillo. The first three letters (BLU), serve as the initial of former while the remaining (ROZE) are derived from the maiden name of the latter i.e. R&O from Rodillo and Z&E from Zenaida.


Bluroze is a wild life and nature park, made for recreational activities for family and friends. This place also holds events like weddings, birthday celebrations, reunions, and and the like. It is a place where you can find interesting animals roaming around while allowing yourselves taking picture with them along the fence, large grounds for camping and team building and a view deck.

This ostrich is taller than Mitch and I.

Soaring high birds.

There were sheep, dog, goats, and birds at the farm that time. But they also featured animals like monkeys, monkey eating eagle,  alligators, ducks, chickens and many more.

Kahit san may pose ang mag amo, hehehe. c.u.t.e


from the hanging bridge

making faces ha Mitch with Michie mitch :)

Ayaw paawat eh, gusto talaga mag plunking! lol


If you plan to have a private talk with your loveones and bonding time with your friends while eating, you can stay in some of the farm's cottages.


A couple of tiny hammocks

The farm never stops to surprise us.
Akala namin ni Mitch, farm lang or parang zoo pero hindi pala. Meron din itong view deck. (see the pic below). The challenge is to climb an old water tank that is about 100 meters high with a spiral ladder. Pero hindi kami umakyat that time, we preferred wandering around agad because for the time constraints. It has Maze and a grand wedding venue where Mitch and I almost tried gate crashing. Hahaha..



Other attractions to do in the farm



The couple names wrote at the Pavillion, indicating that there's a wedding going on but we were so busy taking pictures that we almost didn't notice that we're almost stepping in the red carpet of the said event where guests made their grand entrance. Balak pa naman namin pumasok sa maganda at nakakaakit na ilaw nang isang bulwagan, reception pala ito. hehehe...


Nasabi tuloy ni Mitch saken na dito nalang ang wedding reception ko. Haha, natawa ko dun. Layo ha albeit the place is so adorable.

Sayang nga lang at hindi kami nagtagal....Hindi namin nalibot ang buong place.


After an hour or two, we decided to go back before rain pours. But definitely this place is serene, perfect for a self retreat or just a family getaway. Oh btw, Bluroze also has wide grounds for tent camping and a lot of cabins if you opt to stay indoors overnight. A pool is also available in their family villa upon request.

the Entrance.
Rain finally poured down us. Sakto may tricycle na nag- aabang na sa labasan.  It would be better if you have your own service while in the farm kase mahaba ang lalakarin mo pag nagkataon.

I never regret that I visited this place rather than San Benito.  Because I know, both farm offers tranquility and family wellness.

I will definitely go back in Lipa city...Nice bonding with Mitch and her dog.

  1. wahaha! namiss ko ang aso ko. Sumalangit nawa ang kaluluwa niya. Anyway, aside from dogs, wala na kong ibang kinahihiligang animal. Ok lang kahit aso lang ang makita ko. Pero I doubt. Hindi ko din gets ang entrance fee ng animals. bat ganun? ga-tao ba ang size ni mich? hihihi!

    I never thought may ganyan sa lipa. Alam ko lang kasi sa batangas puro beach. Thanks for this girl. New discovery for me.
