As We arrived at the place, there are few houses owned by Native people and it builts using this long Round lumbers as a foundation of the structures. Some of thw houses built near at the big trees and the floors are higher so wild animals cannot come inside of the structure. It is made of light materials like Bamboo pieces, Knetted coconut leaves as rooftop. This houses are built very unique owned by Native people who lives the place long time ago.
There are lots of wild plants and big trees can be seen and found here, and most of it are Molave, Mahogany, Acacia, Germilina and Ipil Trees. It keeps the place very cool and relaxing because of the shady areas brought by this big and wide tree plants. The Local Governmen was already preserved this trees so it will remain the wonderful views of the mountain. There are lots of wild animals like birds, snakes and even wild cats lives in the place. Pasto areas is also perfect for an adventure just like mountain climbing adventure and camping trips because of the plain place at the top of the Mountain.
For centuries has past, this areas was once an agricultural land and most of the valuable crops and plants was found here are corn and bananas. It was owned by Native people, but as many years has past the farm land was already turned into a Farm raising animals and now it was totally abandoned leaving this rocky particles at the place. Now, this areas are already used as a biking trail and motorcycle trail in fact this place is good and perfect for extremely adventure like motor trail. The place is installed with cable wires and electric post that supports the cable wires and it connects to all houses found near at the place.
Because of the rocky place, only few coconut trees growd in here and some of it are already produced lots of coconut fruits. Pastohan place is truly a perfect areas for agricultural activities and farm raising areas but it was totally abandoned as the Native gone from this place. Thick grass and wild flowers can be seen and found here and some big rocks half burried to the soil for many years.
According to the elders, this place was once a crowded site were lots of small houses owned by native people and it was once an open field and only houses can be seen here, but as many years has past, the place was totally abandoned and lots of wild grass grows including some big trees and bamboo plants. There are lot of changes happened here and it was totally a quite areas.
Neighboring Mountains can also seen from here in fact some of the tallest mountain here in Manticao like Bandera is also found near at Pastohan Areas. It takes a few hours before reaching bandera mountain but going at the place is veru challenging because of the thick grass on the road trail. Sunset Gazing is also perfect in here because we can see the great overviews including the plain areas of Manticao. Here in this Mountain, there are lots of artifacts unearthed by the residents here and it is very exciting and amazed about the things they unearthed here. It was a plowed land here and incedentally hit by native plow reason why those things seen and recovered. According to the elders it was burried 1 feet off the ground and due to heavy rain, the soil was completely washed away.
Some of the artifacts recovered:
This are some of the old things and artifacts unearthed and recovered at the areas. This things are very unique and this are an old flat Iron, Old clay pot and a stone grinder. This place is truly a historical one and aside of that a perfect place to visit, building camping trips and extremely adventure.

How sad that the native people had to leave this place. There's not much of a trace about their livelihood, only the stories of the elders remain and the very few artifacts. No wonder why they used to live here; the land was fit for farming and the weather was mild. The artifacts that were found are truly precious; it is a proof that a rich culture existed here and hardworking people ruled this site. I hope more ancient objects will be discovered and kept in a museum. Thank you for telling us about this!
Yes, it helps for the young generations to imagined the past event and civilization here. ☺
Learning about the rich cultural diversity of the region and how these influences have intertwined over time is fascinating. I love that the local government has taken the necessary conservation measures.
Yes, We can truly imagined their old civilizations and Culture. ☺
Very beautiful picture my friend have a nice day
Yes it is. Have a nice day to you also. ☺
This place is incredibly beautiful. These farmer's places have now turned into farms. It actually happens over time, although it would have looked the most attractive and beautiful if it had been a farmer's place rather than a farm. Now the place has got a natural swap and looks beautiful. It was a great experience to sleep and such a view refreshes us. Best wishes
This place helps to all residents for their farming activities but the sad thing is the place was totally abandoned. We hope it will developed into farm land again. ☺
