Paradizoo’s Farm Animals

I simply wanted to go out last weekend (March 13). So last friday night, I asked hubby whether he wanted to go historical in Manila or sight-seeing in Tagaytay; hubby went for Tagaytay. So I started exploring the world wide web regarding the places in Tagaytay that might interest us. Originally, we intended to go to Picnic Grove, Palace in the Sky, and Flower Farm. But then I found out that Flower Farm only accepts tours by appointment with a minimum number of people. So I searched for more places we could visit. And then I came across Paradizoo, a theme farm in Mendez. People have mistaken it to be located in Tagaytay, but in fact it is already a part of Mendez, Cavite.

Thanks too bloggers who have been to Paradizoo, it wasn’t hard for me to decide whether we should go and visit the place. It seemed like a place where kids would enjoy and so are animal lovers like hubby. Under the same company is Residence Inn in Tagaytay, just 10-15 minutes away from Paradizoo. It’s a hotel with a mini zoo. But I thought of visiting it some other time since we’ve just been to Manila Zoo. And so I told hubby that we’ll be leaving early in the morning for Paradizoo and then Palace in Sky afterwards since we’ve never been there. And so it is set!

We left at 8am in the morning. Early? Yes, I really did my best to leave early! *hahaha* We waited patiently for a bus that would reach Mendez so that we wouldn’t have to keep on transferring. Hooray! After waiting for quite a while, there came a bus bound to Tagaytay that would pass by Mendez Crossing. We have no idea where exactly to alight. Thankfully, the bus conductor was really accomodating. Our only landmark was Mendez Market, and the bus won’t reach it. So the bus conductor simply gave us instructions. (After telling you everything about this weekend trip, I’ll tell you how to get there via public transportation, promise!)

We arrived at 10am from Imus, Cavite. Getting there was really easy for us. I guess we were lucky with the people we came across on our way. I even thought the we’d get lost!

Here is the map of the 7 hectare theme farm. It took us 3 hours to check out everything. The theme farm has a lot to offer its visitors. There’s so much to show you that I have to divide my post so loading pictures wouldn’t take that long. *hihi*

Upon entering the theme farm, the first attraction that you would see are the farm animals. And here they are, enjoy!

 Llama and Alpaca

One-Humped Camel

 Ostrich

Miniature Horse

Carabao

Lots of Goats!

   Erielle liked the goats! It even seemed that she doesn’t even want to leave them anymore.

A cute kid smiling! We were told during briefing that they have no kid in the farm at the moment. So the experience of giving milk to a kid through feeding bottles is not possible. Then what is this? Sad I was really looking forward to that activity.

Yel found some grass on the ground and fed it to the goats. I could really say that she had fun giving them grass. 

 Cool Horns!

5 Legged Cow

 Sleeping Pig

Ducks

 Sheep eating lunch

Lots of Chickens!!          

There’s more to see in Paradizoo! I’ll show you the rest on my next post. They have nurseries, gardens and vegetables and more!!
