A good spot for pre-wedding pictorial or better yet – your wedding reception!

It’s about 45 minutes away from the airport and you need to go through a small dusty and bumpy road to get there, but believe me…it’s all worth it.  A visit to this place can give you a feel of history.  Enjoy an afternoon of coffee with friends or even a romantic candle light dinner there with someone special.  When you get to visit Bacolod, make sure you include this in your itinerary!
