One of the things that I love about my job is I get to visit interesting places. This time, we visited a different kind of resort where the attractions are not white sand beaches and water slides. Instead, they recreated the architectural marvels of the18th to early 20th century Philippines and turned it into a tourist destination. I first saw Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar on the TV show Urban Zone and thought that it's a perfect location for a period film. True enough, the place was well designed and every details of architecture were true to its old-times Philippine references. Its like we literally traveled through time where Guardia Civils roamed around the plaza and people are in chinos and baro't saya. And yes, the staff and employees there were in costumes. Kundimans were blasting on their communal speaker that can be heard through out the resort. So if you're tired of Intramuros and you dont have enough budget to experience Vigan, Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar could be a perfect alternative. Check out their official site for more info.

Photos leave a lot to be desired. Garish is one word that comes to mind. And why sneak in a Nylon mag photo?
