This is definitely a picturesque view of Manila, from Antipolo's peak. A place to find if you want to watch and escape from the busy city of Metro Manila.
Location: Brgy. Sta. Cruz, Sumulong Hi-way, Antipolo
Antipolo's Cloud 9 Sports and Leisure Club is one of the most visited places in the city nowadays. The reason why this is a current hotspot for tourists of these days, is that, because of its beautiful 360 degrees view of the cities near Antipolo when you're on it highest viewing point of the leisure spot. Another is, Cloud 9 is a very accessible and easy to commute place since, from Cubao it is just about 30-45 mins travel going to Brgy. Sta. Cruz along Sumulong Hi-way. Not just for a local side trip for some travelers, but for some who wants to go deeper in Antipolo and spend number of days to stay there, this is definitely a place to try. Since, they also offer accommodations, fun activities, a venue to host a weddings, birthdays or anything that you want to celebrate and most of all, they have restaurants here that will tender you with good foods and delicious pinoy dishes. Me and my friends had a good time roving around the place and even tried crossing their long and steep hanging bridge that gives a shaky feelings on my knees especially to my colleagues while we were on to the interchange from lower to the uppermost part of the view deck.
As what they told us, the best asset of the area is its highly elevated location that provides a picture perfect view of the city skyline. The place is composed of a three major structures that all in all contains 78 rooms, housing a two relaxing swimming pools , seven different types of halls and numerous amenities and fun activities. This was one of our sidetrips that day since we just have to do a day tour on the place and see if the the famous 360 Point of View on the area is an instagram worthy place.
As we go up to the lower viewing deck, where the resto is located. We have the opportunity to take photos on the balcony area when there are no people around to block the picture perfect city skyline.
We even tried the food out there and it was worth giving a two thumbs up for us. In the resto they even offer us variety of pinoy dishes and desserts. We tried their sisig, lumpiang shanghai, sinigang and chopsuey for just a worth of 864 pesos for 6 persons. I think its a very affordable meal considering it can already serve 6 persons with 5 different dishes, a pitcher of iced tea and 6 cup of rice.
After the lunch, we already gone to experience the hanging bridge, crossing from the lower deck to the uppermost deck. At first, we all thought that this is just a fast and easy track, but the worst is yet to come hehe. The process was very shaky especially when the strong wind blows but, this is a very helpful technique to conquer your fear of heights. Take note that they're just allowing 12-15 persons to cross the bridge at a time. It is worth a risk to crossing the bridge since, the top most area was also a picture perfect one, in which you can allow yourselves to embrace and watch the sun sets up there. Too bad for us that day was slightly gloomy, so we didn't have the chance to watch the sunset but still, its picture worthy place to take photos :).
definitely a place to go for. Easy and convenient for those with cars and those who're just a commuters like us. Thanks for reading my blog hope to see you here again.
