Ruins is located about 20 minutes by car from the main street of Bakorod City, Laxon Avenue, about 20 minutes to the east.


Because the sugar cane field spreads along the way, it is ant to go with a motorcycle (tricycle) with a platform.


Admission fee is 95 pesos (about 200 yen) for adults


Separating a single road that entered from the entrance ... ...


A spacious park is spreading. The tressed lawn is very refreshing.


There was a monument made of stone on the north side.


A big stone is on a stone pillar.


In addition, the back of the monument had become a public toilet.


The sight seen from the monument. The scenery that the sun sets will also be pretty.


A stream is also flowing in the park.


Benches beside the brook have speakers. It seems to be nice to relax while listening to music.


When I walked down a park and walked a single road, a big building came into sight.


The entrance looks something like this.


I am interested in the ice cream at the entrance in front of the building.


There are 3 types of flavors.


The classic mango ice is pretty delicious.


Besides ice cream, there were also Frankfurt and sandwiches.


When I caught up with ice cream, I finally went to Ruins.


This is the ruins of the mansion built by Mr. Don Mariano Ledesma Lacson, one of the most famous local celebrities, who had dealt with sugar cane plantation, which is a special product of Bacolod, "Ruins"


As I climb the stairs ......


Access to the second floor is prohibited. Because of aging it has become impossible to go up to the second floor.


The spacious mansion is made of concrete.


Mr. Mariano on the left is Mr. Lord and his wife Maria Braga on the right. Unfortunately, Maria said that he had died before the completion of this mansion.


The mansion incorporating the design of Italian architecture was destroyed because of American governance and attack by the former Japanese army during the Second World War.


However, the building made of the finest grade concrete passed through war damage, never chewed down.


After the war, after undergoing major repair, it is now reborn as a place to represent Bacolod.


In the hall, tourists were pinned by a famous guide in English by a mysterious speech by Mr. Roger Lucero, a popular TV caster locally.


In the hall are the costumes of the lords ......


Previously pictures were decorated.


By the way, the souvenir corner is also substantial as a sightseeing place.


Ruins will light up at night. The locals said Rwins was the most beautiful from evening to night.



Beautiful space is also popular for dating.


It was a spot that I could not remove as I visited Bacolod.
