The Ruins (Talisay Bacolod)

This is one of the most memorable and romantic places I've visited in my life. "The Ruins" located in the city of smiles, located in between Talisay and Bacolod City, Philippines.
























According to history, this is the remains of a mansion owned by Don Mariano Ledesma which was intentionally burnt during World War II so that the Japs won't be able to use it as their headquarters.

There are no public utility vehicle so we had to rent a taxy from Bacolod to bring us inside. We negotiated 300php but we decided to give 500 php instead as an extra tip because the driver kept talking to himself in bisaya. ;p
