Rainy Season

From June until September, the vegetation is dense and moist. The forests and grasslands are beautifully verdant. Waterfalls flow strongly and turbulently, making a loud noise echoing around the forest for visitors to hear.

Cool Season

From October to February, the weather can get quite cold, particularly in the mountains and during the night. The cloudless blue sky contrasts with the green forest. Mists gather around the mountains, the sun is in the sky, and this is a popular period for tourists to come and stay.
