Experience the Cozy, magical, refreshing ambiance, mountains, colourful gardens, wanderlust and adventure . A must go destination to explore the beautiful place of Original Sirao Garden- Little Amsterdam of the Philippines. This family-friendly tourist attraction is located in the heart of Cebu City, Philippines.
HOW TO GET THERE
From Colon Street, Fuente, SM or Ayala, if you want to commute: ride any jeepney Going to Lahug and stop at JY Square Mall.
There's no Transportation going to Sirao-Garden from Lahug. The best way is to go by motorcycle ride "habal-habal" and will take around 40 minutes to get there. There are many motorcycle driver around the mall, you shouldn't miss it. Price is $2.49 (P130) per person, however, if you want to have the driver wait for you they will charge $2.87 (P150).
I highly recommend this because you can hardly get one when you go back to the city center. Back and forth we paid $5.75 (P300).
WHAT TO EXPECT
Do expect that the road is tough even a small car has a hard time to get there. Taxis or uber ride charge you a lot due to the bumpy, up and down adventure you will experience. Some taxis refuse to get there hence it's too dangerous uphill destination of the mountain.
LOCATION
There are 2 Sirao Garden the Original and New One.
The first garden when you passed by is the New Sirao Garden. I don't recommend you this because according to the driver you will be disappointed how little it is and few things you can see compared to the Original Sirao Garden. I also heard from people there that the New one isn't that good as the original one.
