A road trip to calming and refreshing Lipa City, Batangas

Lipa City is a part of Batangas province. There are countless food establishments, shopping stores, places to visit, and hotels around the City where you can shop, eat, spend time with the whole family, enjoy and stay! If you are a jolly person, you can always find ways to explore Lipa! You can also find some food products to buy and bring with you when you go home.

Our family went there the first week of January. It’s very cool, cloudy, and breezy, but you can still see the clean and green surroundings of this place. It’s an ideal place to stay if you want to relax in the calming environment of nature!

It’s more or less an hour’s drive from Manila, depending on how you run your vehicle. No worries if you don’t have foods brought along with you, as you can still buy some of these at food chains or food stores that you can find along the road. Gasoline stations are always around, so you can fuel your car, and I’m so glad this gasoline station have their comfort rooms where travelers can urinate and spend a few minutes freshening up!

If you are a business-minded person or an investor it’s also a good place to buy a house and lot or lot only in Lipa where you can turn into residential, commercial areas, rest house or farm, depending on the location.

Lipa is well known for its delectable coffee grains, which are turned into the popular kapeng Barako! The aromatic smell, strong taste, and warm sip of this coffee will truly ask you to have one more! You can drink it as black, or you can add some creamer to it.

This place also maintained the feels of living in the province, as you can still see farm animals like cows, carabao, Chickens, ducks, etc. found in some barangays of Lipa.

You can also see many vegetable farms, cornfields, rice fields, root crops gardens etc. Where you can buy freshly grown food ingredients for your recipes!

You can also see churches around because people here are mostly Roman Catholics and are religious. That’s why this place is the religious center of the province. There are Convents, Seminaries, and Religious ministries that are found in this city.

There are also shopping malls in the City proper where you can buy your personal needs, food and spend a few hours of self-pampering. Food stores, shopping boutiques, beauty salons, etc. are also present inside the malls.
