Murcia, in the northern part of Negros Occidental Province on the island of Negros in the Philippines, is set in the foothills of the Central Cordillera mountain range where the Mambukal Mountain Resort creates one of the Philippines' most complete mountain wellness destinations, combining seven waterfalls, nature trails, and hot spring pools in a tropical highland setting near Bacolod City. Mambukal Resort Bacolod draws on sodium-rich geothermal waters from the volcanic geology of the Negros Island volcanic chain, offering warm sulfurous thermal pools within a mountain resort complex surrounded by tropical rainforest and accessible from the sugar capital of the Philippines, Bacolod City, in the lowlands below. The seven waterfall trails through the Mambukal rainforest, the mudpot thermal vents where volcanic mud emerges alongside the hot springs, and the Bacolod City MassKara Festival — one of the Philippines' most celebrated annual cultural events held each October — create a richly natural and festive backdrop for thermal wellness in this highland Negros resort destination.
