Paru Parong Bukid is a Filipino Term for Mountain butterfly. As the name implies Paru Parong Bukid is a Butterfly Garden slash nature park and more. It is a wellness facility too!

Mervin and I arrived at the DZ Romualdez airport at around 10 AM via AirPhil Express. Our close friend Ludette Ruiz of Leyte Gulf Travel and Tours picked us up at the airport. From there we then drove towards the town of Babatngon, Leyte where Paru Parong Bukid Wellness Center is located.
It’s clean, decent, and reasonably priced. That’s what GoHotels PH is all about. A few weeks ago, Mervin and I was in Tacloban City to cover the Christmas Festival in Palo.
I have tried the other branches of GoHotels, most recently was the GoHotelsPH Bacolod City. So more or less, I know what to expect here in their Tacloban City property.

All roads led to Palo Leyte last December 14 as the town celebrates the annual Christmas Festival. The opening ceremonies was led by no less than the Mayor herself, Madam Matin Petilla. Also present during the event was the new Leyte Governor Mimieta Bagulaya. Former Governor and now Department of Energy Secretary Jerico “Icot” Petilla also graced the event.

A few weeks ago, I was in the province of Leyte, and my mind has already been focused to visit the town of Dagami, known as the home of the best tasting original Leyte delicacy known as Binagol.
