I learned about this resort on Facebook, it suddenly appeared on my newsfeed and I instantly fell in love. We decided to celebrate my son Conan’s 3rd birthday at a low budget resort but at a place that will leave a remarkable memory, we traveled to Torres Farm and Resort, which to our surprise was only less than an hour drive from us (General Trias), and only 1-hour and 30 minutes for those of our friends who came from Manila via public transport. The accessibility of the place made us more excited to explore the place.

Torres Farm and Resort was originally a 14-hectare mango farm. Wherein the very accommodating owners,  Mr. Frederick and Anna Baylosis resides. The idea started when the couple decided to have their own private pool, then little by little they enhanced the idea of creating replicas of the iconic places of the world. Then just 2 years ago opened the place to the public. I was amazed by the humbleness of its owners and their hearts generosity of sharing their humble place to the people of Cavite & all others who want “to view the world” at a low-entrance fee rates.

SANTORINI, GREECE

Easily recognized around the world is the famous Santorini of Greece. The rendition of Torres Farm, its white and blue colored structure gave dignity to the real Santorini. This has been an inspiration of the Function Room found at the Torres Farm and Resort – Greece Theme. We spotted a wedding celebration during our stay at the resort and it can cater quite a number of guests as well as its car parking space can accommodate at least 20 to 50 cars.

GREAT PYRAMID OF GIZA IN EGYPT

The Egyptian pyramids are ancient pyramid-shaped masonry structures located in Egypt. Built during the time when Egypt was one of the richest and most powerful civilizations in the world. http://www.history.com. The Great Pyramid of Giza is the most likely to be replicated because it is the oldest and the largest of the three pyramids found in El Giza, Egypt. Now, you don’t have to go to Egypt to experience the aura of the Pyramid era, just drop by here at the Egypt Theme.

SINGAPORE’S MERLION

The Merlion is the mythical symbol of Singapore and it has the head of a lion and the body of a fish. Tourists flock at the Merlion and is one of the most popular attraction in Singapore. The Torres Farm captured the heart of Singapore by placing a Merlion in one of its function areas. Re-live Singapore experience by taking Instagram photos, use your imagination while you slay that photo shoot.
