There is one place that I dream of visiting soon, the most famous tourist attraction in Bohol, the Pregnant Woman or more famously known as the Chocolate Hills.
Why is it called the Chocolate Hills? They look like giant mole hills, or as some say, woman's breasts. For the first timers who'll be seeing its picture can hardly believe that that these hills are not a man-made artifact. The chocolate hills consist of are no less than 1268 hills (some claim this to be the exact number). They are very uniform in shape and mostly between 30 and 50 meters high. They are covered with grass, which, at the end of the dry season, turns chocolate brown. From this color, the hills derive their name. At other times, the hills are green, and the association may be a bit difficult to make.
It has its own legend that the hills came into existence when two giants threw stones and sand at each other in a fight that lasted for days. When they were finally exhausted, they made friends and left the island, but left behind the mess they made.
Some activities while in Bohol are Bird Watching, Bird Exploration, Dolphin and Whale Watching, Mountain Biking, Sailing, Scuba Diving and Trekking. I wish I will have enough funds to visit this awesome site!
