I really have a great time staying in any part of Davao City. Its a great feeling knowing you feel safe at all times. I have been here (8) eight times, been to Samal, Peoples Park, Eden Nature’s Park, Jack Ridge and maybe I would love to see Mt Apo. It’s a great feeling to wonder and feel safe also the most important are the honesty of Taxi Drivers. Honesty is so important knowing the fact as you travel you won’t get a tour of the city before your destination, I Love this, I wish other cities would do the same, for the safety of a tourist who’s trip will be more pleasant and wanting to come back. Nice and clean too.
Keep up the good work.
See you soon.
Ang pina ka Lami sa City of Davao ang mga prutas sama saging, pinya, durian Ug bulcachong Na Sud-an. I love Davao. From Ormoc City.
My family migrated here 11 years ago, and all of us fell in love with the City. I have stayed in Metro Manila for quite sometime and although that city has its own vibe and allure, nothing can compare to what Davao can offer. Davao City’s economy is booming, schools, malls, buildings and real state properties sprouting everywhere and yet urban planning/zoning is still being followed. But what I am proudest most is the people and its leaders, the leaders do their job well and the people in return give their undying respect and support. But look around and you’ll see zero to a few structures, signs, and government vehicles that bear the political family names. Most are marked with “BY or FROM THE PEOPLE of DAVAO CITY”
Davao resident Seaman R.G. is cheater! karma is a bitch!
Married my hubby from davao and migrate there for 10 yrs well there is no place like is like Davao good food good friends and low cost of living.. we have everything in Davao no traffic good governance beaches and adventure…
There should be #22 pertaining to clean environment. :-)
Peace and order, cleanliness, excellent food, clean water, good places to visit, good, honest people…Davao’s got it. Keep it up.
i know where is the promised land and where to enter the next path of life
What is Great about Davao City is the Mayor,
You can walk and go places without worry knowing there is someone name Rodrigo Duterte at your service.
I visited Davao for the first time last 2009 and
said “This is the perfect place to live in”
2011, I said, “wow,really,life is here”
2014, Who would have thought that i was able to say; “Also,love is here”
After 25 years of waiting,i met my first boyfriend. <3
I love DAVAO.
Yes, all of it is true, and i enjoy everything mentioned. But the 22. reason for me to go to Davao is my beloved fiancee, living in this magnificant city!
I’m not from Davao, I just stayed there for over 6 years when I was in college. “ALMOST PERFECT CITY” for an average citizen like me. Happy people, good governance, cheap but quality living and safe. If I earned enough money I’d love to buy a property to Philippines’ safest city.
I agree! Davao has lots to offer! My sisters – in – law married Dabawenos, so we get to visit Davao, luckily. My cousins live there now too from other regions. Our stay is always memorable & fulfilling. What a beautiful clean peaceful & modern city it is. We will soon be back there again!
Going to DAVAO CITY when I was a kid is a treat for us. My parents used to shopped in NCCC Mall to buy our school needs. Does it still exist? Btw, I am from North Cotabato and now living overseas.
I mz dvo…evrytym uuwi me dyan my something new about dvo…ano nman kya un s pg uwi ko…yalla davao!
I’mnot for Digoy for Pres. but I love Davao. Feel confident riding motorcycle there from CDO. Nice ang mga fruits and sinugba nga catfish sa dalan. Loves to go there back. Mabuhay and congrats!
I visited Davao for the first time last November 2013 and fell in love with the city! I felt as safe as if I was in my own home town in Texas. There are many differences, but each one is unique and interesting..the guards at the malls and hotels and other areas were a new experience for me, but I was very pleasantly surprised at the professionalism and courtesy which made going through the check points so smooth and confortable. The U.S. should really look at this and model its own security after it…courtesy and pleasantness can go hand in hand with securing a place. I still remember the fruits I had there…I almost cried tasting the delicious pineapple I had at Eden. I’m going back there in May. The people are wonderful and friendly. I can’t sing the praises enough
I grew up in Davao, relocated to Canada and finally retired in Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S.A. I have been away for more than half a century. I am longing to visit my roots. Looking at the improvements and the new changes in Davao, I very proud of the government as well as our fellow Davaowenyos in making our own province the way it is today. Let us all maintain its beauty, order and responsible government. Thank you, Mayor Duterte.
Among the other Davao City must try adventures are: riding the Skycycle, River/Water Tubing (A fun way of flowing yourself into one of the rivers of Davao City), trying out the Waterball Park of Crocodile Farm Complex.
And if you’re into nature, it is best to visit or stay at Malagos Garden Resort, or try one the best hinterlands resort of Davao City: Jive Highland Resort or you can also try the Seagull Mountain Resort. Both resorts, offer an exhilarating natural landscape view in an above sea level setting and has its own waterfalls and a Baguio City like atmosphere – a cold foggy weather.
