City in the Philippines
Bacolod is a city on the northwest coast of Negros Island in the Philippines. The 19th-century San Sebastian Cathedral stands beside Bacolod Public Plaza. Its original bells are on display in the churchyard outside. The Dizon-Ramos Museum is a 1950s house packed with memorabilia and photographs of the prominent family that once lived there. The Capitol Park and Lagoon has a lake and 2 golden water buffalo statues.
Next to the park, the Negros Forests and Ecological Foundation Biodiversity Conservation Center is a sanctuary for local wildlife, including colorful hornbills. The neighboring Negros Museum traces local history and culture, with exhibits on the local sugar industry. Religious artifacts and handmade textiles are displayed at the Museum Negrense de La Salle. The Barangay Sang Virgen Church houses an intricate mosaic made of shells. On the coast, the Pope John Paul II Tower offers city views, and the Bacolod Baywalk overlooks the Guimaras Strait. Northeast of the city, The Ruins are the remains of a 20th-century Italianate mansion.

There are few competitors nearby but the investment made by the owner to offer variety of instagram-worthy backgrounds – from Indian Tents to huge dinosaurs to extra huge king kong – that this place offers makes it a very recommended place for families with small kids. You can always opt for the competitors that offer the same product, highland resort, but the experience here is superb.
