Flight chronicles of the backpacker Tutubi, with travelogues, pictures/photos/videos, travel guides, independent and honest reviews, affordable, recommended resorts and hotels (including inns, guesthouses, pension houses, lodges, hostels, condotels, bed and breakfast and other cheap accommodations), commuting guides, routes (sometimes street maps and GPS coordinates/waypoints) and driving directions to answer "how to get there" questions, information and tips on tourism, budget travel and living in Philippines, Exotic Asia and beyond!
Backpacking, independent travel, and flashpacking are cheaper than the "cheapest package tours" and promotional offers around but you can also use travel information for family vacations, even romantic honeymoon destinations.
More than the usual tourist spots and "places to see," this blog advocates heritage conservation, environmental protection, and history awareness for Filipinos, foreigners, and ex-pats wishing to explore Paradise Philippines and Exotic Asia!
Ternate - Nasugbu Tunnel: Map and Opening Date (Kaybiang Tunnel)
The 300 meter long tunnel along Ternate-Nasugbu Road, bored through Mt. Pico de Loro at the boundary of Nasugbu, Batangas and Ternate, Cavite will soon be open to motorists. Besides connecting the two neighboring provinces plus the resort towns of Nasugbu and Ternate, it will also lessen travel time to Nasugbu and Western batangas by about an hour and decongest Tagaytay City and spur tourism growth in the area.

Just follow these directions to Ternate-Nasugbu by taking Roxas Boulevard, Coastal Road, CavitEx, exit at Kawit, take Centennial Road, Antero Soriano Highway, Governor's Drive, Caylabne road and Ternate-Nasugbu Road. You will pass by the Cavite tows of Kawit, Tanza, Naic, Maragondon and Ternate while after the tunnel you will reach the southwestern towns of Batangas: Nasugbu, Lian, Calatagan, Balayan, Calaca and onwards.
You will also pass by beach resorts in Ternate (Caylabne, Puerto Azul, Tali Beach) and faster travel to famous resorts in Nasugbu, Batangas (Pico de Loro, Club Punta Fuego, Terrazas de Punta Fuego, Munting Buhangin, Canyon Cove Beach Resort)
Ternate - natugbu Tunnel will open on July 1, 2013 (unless further delays in construction occurs. This tunnel was conceptualized during the time of President Fidel V. Ramos)
Wow! It's now painted white. Last time I was there last January is, it is all grey and concrete is dripping down from its roof wall. Can't wait for this to be officially open.
