"B**a Pit."
This is just one of the countless tourist destinations in the region.
Most of the locals in Toledo proper weren’t so sure of the B**a Pit’s exact location. Unless you mention the names Carmen Copper or Atlas Mining, they usually don’t have a clue where or what B**a Pit is all about. Ultimately, though, we found the entrance to Carmen Copper Corporation through the kindness and guidance of the locals in the area.
I thought that was the end of our journey. After all, we were already standing outside Carmen Copper Corporation.
Little did we know, guests, except those who have connections to the top dogs inside, are not allowed from visiting B**a Pit. Also, the tour must be for educational purposes, and not (as the guards have said) for adventure and recreation.
Lieve and the rest nicely asked permission from head guard, but he didn’t give in to our appeal. One of the guards even suggested that there’s nothing to see in the site, except for a vast muddy wasteland. Likewise, they told us that B**a Pit isn’t as scenic as most of the pictures we see on Instagram and Facebook.
But as you’d expect, we didn’t let these small hiccups stop us from getting to B**a Pit. As far as I can remember, it was Idas, or also known as Laag Sparkles, who told me that there are habal-habal motorists that offer back-and-forth rides to B**a Pit.
While Lieve, Marzi, Hannah and Sherlyn were busy talking to the guards, me and Wilfred silently moved our way to the nearest habal-habal drivers, to get more information about B**a Pit. As it turns out, there were a few drivers available who knew the way to B**a Pit.
We, then, gathered the troops, and haggled with the drivers. After agreeing on a price, we took a short and slightly bumpy ride to the infamous B**a Pit of Toledo.
Eventually, we arrived at an overlooking spot where we could get a beautiful view of B**a Pit. And of course, we did have a blast snapping shots of this place.
