I’m pretty sure all of us have imagined or excited what it’s like up there at least once in our lives. A must-see for those visiting Southern Iloilo. Garin farm has lots to offer in relaxation, leisure, recreational place, education and of course in meditation. It is also a demonstration farm showcasing viable agricultural livelihood plant and animal culture. A nice place to spend time with family and friends, rest off, good ambiance and a great place for sightseeing.

 Experience a unique pilgrimage resort in San Joaquin,  Iloilo came with an idea of letting everyone experience heaven without having to travel to the afterlife. All there is to do is to fly to Iloilo City and travel to Garin Farm to have an enlightening experience in their version of Heaven On Earth.

 Garin Farm also boasts of its recreational facilities and activities such as zipline, swimming pool, hilltop fishing, horseback riding, golf cart, and pedal boat.

 Once we entered, we were greeted by a beautiful garden -a representation of Adan and Eve in the garden of Eden. This was followed by an interesting take on the Noah’s Ark, and later on, followed by Ten Commandments. Lastly, before climbing up the stairs, you’ll see the “9th Story of Creation”.You’ll also get to see and pass by major scenarios or events that were told in the bible,
. And of course, Before getting to cross at the highest point of the resort you need to climb the stairs with 480 steps until the foot of the cross. But if you’re only up to Divine Mercy Shrine, you’ll only need to walk 456 steps. I recommend for those who no longer have the stamina to take the golf cart up to the highest point of the pilgrimage site which is only P90.00.Once you are on the top I guarantee you will be rewarded with an awesome and breathtaking experience.
