Timoga
Swimming Pool
The definition of a swimming pool is a man-made container filled with water intended for swimming or other water-based recreation. Well, we have swimming pools that serve as one of the tourist spots here in the Philippines.
Some of the
swimming pools here in the Philippines are located at Timoga-Buru-un, Iligan
City. The source of water of Timoga Springs comes from Lake Lanao in the only Islamic city in the Philippines--Marawi City, Lanao del Sur—which is 37 kilometers
away. Lake Lanao waters come from a volcanic source, the lake being the crater of an extinct volcano. These waters are filtered
subterraneally in the Timoga, Buru-un area of Iligan, making it one of the
richest source of fresh, high pH, alkaline mineral water.
Timoga swimming pools that’s what
Iliganons usually call it, has an icy cool feeling when we swim in the pool. It
has clean blue clear water used for the pools and it can also help us feel
relaxed in mind, body including our emotions.
