Butterfly Sanctuary in Siquijor

Siquijor

After Cambugahay Falls, we went straight to the Butterfly Sanctuary in Siquijor, located near Mt. Bandilaan. It’s a small, peaceful garden with a simple netted enclosure that houses several local butterfly species. The space is modest but charming, with flowering plants, shaded paths, and a quiet atmosphere that contrasts nicely with the busier stops earlier in the day.

Inside, we got to see butterflies fluttering freely, along with different stages of their life cycle—from caterpillars to cocoons. It’s a calming spot, great for a quick visit if you enjoy nature and slow, quiet moments.

There’s a small entrance fee that helps with maintenance and conservation. While the sanctuary isn’t large, it’s well cared for, and the experience is relaxed and educational. A gentle stop that adds something different to the day’s adventure.
