The Philippines is one of the largest producers of sugar cane in the world. Among its provinces, Negros Occidental is included as the top source of sugar cane in the country. And in the said province, one of its cities, which is Talisay City, was the first plant bed of sugar cane which gained recognition in the industry for the whole province.
Talisay City might be described as a promising city for its sugar cane industry. This continually developing city also has fascinating wonders that indeed are worth visiting and discovering.
In exploring the enticing wonders of Talisay City, here are some places that you must visit:
The Ruins, regarded as the “Taj Mahal” of the Philippines, was an ancestral mansion of the wealthy family of sugar baron Don Mariano Ledesma Lacson built on a 440-hectare sugar plantation in the early 1900s in memory of his Portuguese wife, Maria Braga Lacson.
The Ruins became one of the top attractions in Talisay City because of its meaningful history and, of course, it also gives a romantic and relaxing vibe to all the tourists and locals that visit the place. The attraction is now privately owned by Don Mariano Ledesma Lacson and Cora Maria Osorio Rosa-Braga’s great-grandchildren. They preserved the natural ruined state of the mansion amidst the operational farmlands and other developments that surround its location. As of now, it has become a favorite destination of visitors to Talisay City and the province of Negros Occidental.
The Tana Dikang Lizares Ancestral House, also known as Balay ni Tana Dicang, is the ancestral house of spouses Don Efigenio Lizares and Doña Enrica Alunan before it became one of the attractions in Talisay City, Negros Occidental.
The ancestral stone house is over a hundred years old and is named after Doña Enrica, who is fondly called “Tana Dacana”. It is a representation of the olden affluent lifestyle of the Haciendas on Negros Island. The mansion has not been renovated since it was built so you can see its actual original structure. It was built using traditional construction materials such as narra, balayong, and molave as well as Capiz shell panes, adding to the grandeur of the century-old house. The curated artifacts and objects, including the furniture, are still in their original form as they were back then.
At present, you can visit Balay ni Tana Dicang as it has been turned into a museum that serves as a landmark in Talisay City. It has an art gallery that is open to the public to show its historic relevance and grandeur.
