What are the attractions in Maasin, Leyte?
Lady of Assumption in Jaleca Hills
It is an extremely unique chapel because it is erected on the top of the Jaleca hills. A superstitious belief have been raised that a devotee dreamt that the chapel should be built in on hill to protect them from calamities. Since then, no calamity has reached and devastated the place. Near the chapel, an extremely high man made figure of Mother Mary was built in the place. It can be seen from afar and is considered as the tallest privately owned statue in the country.
Camp Danao
This is a place familiar for the Boy Scouts of the Philippines because it is once where the national jamboree was held. Notable sites from this place are the Maasin Zoo and the man-made lake.
Cagnituan Caves
Also called as Guinsohotan cave by the locals, this cave welcomes you with a deep catch basin of water flowing from the inside. Entering the cave, you will encounter different scenarios. You will be passing a lot of slippery passages with leg up to neck deep. Inside you will also pass through a huge room filled with bats. It will be a dark and slippery adventure but I am sure that you will feel accomplished after seeing a little ray of light from the outside which means that you’ve reached the end of the cave.
