Abstract

This study, “Echoes from Green: Unfolding Stories of Visitors of Pan Ay-ayaman Eco Park,” explores visitors’ lived experiences, emotions, and meanings connected to nature. Using a qualitative-narrative design, guided by Place Attachment Theory and Experiential Learning Theory, interviews were conducted with visitors of Pan Ay-ayaman Eco Park in Taloy Sur, Tuba, Benguet. Findings revealed that the park serves as an emotional sanctuary promoting peace, relaxation, and reflection. Visitors expressed deep spiritual gratitude and environmental appreciation, finding inspiration in nature’s calmness and beauty. The park also encouraged social connection, with families and groups forming joyful memories. Iconic attractions like the heart-shaped view deck and arched coffee area enhanced emotional experiences and identity. The study concludes that Pan Ay-ayaman Eco Park contributes to emotional well-being, community bonding, and sustainable tourism, highlighting the importance of preserving nature-centered spaces for future generations.
