Jack's Ridge in Davao City

As the welcome to Jack Ridge says, Experience Davao at Jack's Ridge. The place is at the top of the hills of Davao city and you can definitely see the whole city from atop.  For people who are from Manila it is something similar to the view atop Antipolo or the Tops view in Cebu.

According to some people in davao, Jack's ridge is a place where the Japanese retreated to when the Filipinos and Americans tried to take back the country form their hands.  Below the ridge are caves that the japanese created to be able to hide from the onslaught of the american forces.

Today the only japanese you can see are tourists enjoying the place since the place is a soothing one to have dinner, drinks and fun. Jack's ridge has nice restaurants and hang out points where you can see the whole city's lights.

There is nothing really special about the food in the restaurants , just your usual sisig, inihaw na pusit, tuna belly, blue marlin. Nothing much to brag about the taste of the food. This time its the place that really is important.

If you are a first timer or a person who enjoys admiring great places then Jack's Ridge is a place that you nshjouldnt miss going to when you are in Davao city.
