Lantawan Grassland, Zamboanga City
Here's where you can find the best view of Zamboanga City. Lantawan Grassland in Zamboagna city is such a romantic place and getting to here is literally no-sweat and easy!
This has become one of my favorite places in my city because it so near the yet, when you get here, it is as if you are far from the hustle-bustle of the city. It is so quiet that all you here are the sound of the birds, the breeze and forest, which is just right behind the Lantawan hill. The view of the city is spectacular. It is probably the widest angel of view of the entire Zamboanga pueblo.
From the Lantawan Grassland, you could also see Mt. Pulong Bato, a popular destination of the Zamboanga local especially during holy week and you'll notice that the Lantawan Grassland has a higher elevation than the cross in Pulom Bato. On the opposite side of the city view lies the Pasonanca Natural Park Watershed, which is one of the oldest watersheds in the whole Philippines. Isn't that cool!?
