Highlights
  • The Ruins - Known as the “Taj Majal” of Negros, this the ancestral mansion of the family of wealthy sugar baron Don Mariano Ledesma Lacson built on a 440 hectare sugar plantation in Talisay, City Negros Occidental in the early 1900’s in memory of his Portuguese wife Maria Braga Lacson, who died during the birth of their eleventh child.
    During World War 2, Filipino guerillas burned it down as a countermeasure to prevent the invading Japanese forces from using it as a military office.
  • Balay Negrense Museum - Also known as Victor Fernandez Gaston Ancestral House is a museum in Silay City, Negros Occidental in the Philippines, showcasing the lifestyle of a late 19th-century Negrense sugar baron. It is notable for being the first museum to be established in the province of Negros Occidental.
  • Campuestohan Highland Resort - Take a dip in the swimming pool, walk through the gardens, have fun in the playground and simply relax and unwind. In time, go horseback riding and bring out an adventurous spirit by riding on a 340-meter zipline.

Everything that one can ask for is found right here at Campuestohan Highland Resort. There simply is no need to look further, because nothing compares to the panoramic scenery and breathtaking beauty that Campuestohan offers.

  • Cinco de Noviembre Memorial - Cinco De Noviembre marker or the Farmacia Locsin was owned by Don Leonardo de la Rama Locsin that served as a secret collection booth for the donations used for the revolution of Negros. Instead of donors name and the amount donated, he recorded it as a name of medicine and the grams meant the amount of money donated. In this event Negrenses prove their kills in tricking Spaniards while establishing a functioning government in a street corner.
  • Capitol Lagoon Park - The Capitol Park and Lagoon is a provincial park located in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental, in the Philippines. One of the features of the park are matching sculptures depicting a woman standing alongside a water buffalo and that of a man pulling another water buffalo. These sculptures are located at the northern and southern ends of the lagoon. These figures were executed by Italian sculpture Francesco Riccardo Monti who also did the sculptures of the Metropolitan Manila Theater and the University of the Philippines - Visayas Iloilo campus. Guillermo Tolentino also contributed as a sculptor of the figures.
  • San Diego Pro-Cathedral - The San Diego Pro-cathedral, formerly known as the San Diego Parish Church or the St. Didacus Parish Church before its declaration as a pro-cathedral in 1994, is an early 20th-century church in Silay City, Negros Occidental in the Philippines. It is the only pro-cathedral outside of the national capital of Manila, and is unique in Negros Occidental for being the only church in the province featuring a cupola or dome.
    The ruins of the older church can be found at the back of the church that was built in 1841.
  • San Sebastian Cathedral - Famously called Bacolod Cathedral, the San Sebastian Cathedral is the most famous religious and historical landmark in the province of Bacolod.
  • Pope John Paul II Tower - The seven-storey building is dedicated to the late Pope John Paul II who visited this capital city on the 20th of February 1981. It was such a momentous and festive event for the people of Bacolod City that time as they were blessed by his visit.

All smiles in Bacolod - Convenient and relaxing trip. Our driver Kuya Ed took nice photos. We enjoyed our trip despite the heavy rains.

Our Bacolod Escapade - The tour guide/driver Ed was helpful as he guided us to places where we want to. Unfortunately, the other museum which we are supposed to visit was closed. As such, there is a need to update published itinerary/places to go to disclose a statement that some attractions are close due to holiday/non opening day, etc. But overall, our Bacolod tri-city tour was good.

Must try experience when in Negros Occidental - It was a good tour. I highly recommend this experience. Because it rained in the afternoon, the experience in Talisay was not as pleasant as the Bacolod and Silay leg of the tour. Of course, this was not the fault of the tour operator.
