Malaybalay

關於Malaybalay

Malaybalay City is the provincial capital of Bukidnon Province, on Mindanao Island in the Philippines.

Situated in a charming rural environment at about 2034ft with mountains on sides, the climate is very relaxing, as houses don't need any cooling facilities, so restful sleep is guaranteed. Malaybalay shows parallels to Baguio city, but it is more attractive due to its smaller size, unspoiled and friendly people and spacious location on a wide plateau.

The climate is milder but still quite fresh at night. It is protected from storm as it is far south from the Typhoon belt and also from landslides, as the mountains in Bukidnon are not as steep as they are in the Cordilleras.

The tourism information is in a small cabin within Pines View Park behind the capitol building.
