Davao is famous for many things: golden eagles, exotic flowers and breathtaking attractions and landscapes Look out for the Puentespina Orchids and Tropical Plants centre where the colours and scents will leave you bewildered, or the shops selling beautiful works in gold — the city is a major producer of gold and crafts. For adventure seekers, there’s the Davao River where white water rafting is quite popular and the Crocodile Park. No visit to Davao would be complete without enjoying one of its colourful festivals. The Araw ng Dabaw Festival in March, the Padigosan and the Sambuokan in September or the Banayan Festival in October. They all are an excellent way to see local tradition at its best.
