The MBG was started in September 1965 to support professional instruction and research related to forestry and plant sciences, and to serve the needs of tourism as well as the educational and recreational needs of the general public. The Makiling Botanical Garden of the Makiling Center for Mountain Ecosystem harbors a dipterocarp forest supporting several hundred species of plant and animal life in a verdant and natural setting dotted by mini waterfalls and gurgling streams. Inside the MBG are also recreational features for the public: a hiking trail, an arboretum, a plant nursery, and a swimming pool fed by the natural springs of Mt. Makiling.
