Experience a unique spiritual journey in Garin Farm of San Joaquin.
Situated at the southernmost town of the Province of Iloilo, Garin Farm is an inland resort that integrates agriculture, leisure and religion to create a farm, a recreational place and a pilgrimage site all in one location.
The place is actually a functional farm that showcases agricultural practices and houses various livestock and crops. Their produce are sold on site, served in their restaurant and supplied to different buyers. A walk around the farm will let you experience the world of farming in real life.

More than its agricultural features, Garin Farm also boasts of its recreational facilities and activities such as zip line, swimming pool, buggy car, kayaking, fishing and whatnot. But the highlight of the place is the Pilgrimage Hill with 456-step stairs that features nine major biblical scenes including the Nativity or the Birth of Jesus, Baptism of Christ, the Last Supper and the Agony in the Garden, among others. The stair steps end at peak that recreates the usual notion of what “heaven” looks like.
To get to this replica of heaven, one must pass a a dark tunnel until you reach the all-white end. Don’t forget to wear your shades specially at noon and broad daylight as the experience can be hurtful to the eyes.
