personal challenge of going to the \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.maayalegaspi.com\/2016\/06\/challenge-accepted-81-provinces-of.html\" target=\"_blank\"\u003E81 provinces of the Philippines?\u003C\/a\u003E Yep.. I just crossed out 3 province off at once on that list! It's a known fact that I love to travel (who doesn't?!) and I am just happy to travel with some of my high school friends. I've been trying to ask them before if they want to travel and it didn't happen until now! So one random evening when I have nothing to do at work and there came a seat sale going to Bacolod, I just tried my luck asking them if they want to go.. and ta-dahh.. the rest is adventure. So my actual plan was just to tour around Bacolod, but there aren't a lot of stuff to do in Bacolod. I guess a 4 day excursion is too much to explore just one city. Even the famous \"The Ruins\" is not located in Bacolod.. it's in Talisay City, another city in the province of Negros Occidental. So when I was about to do our DIY itinerary, my friends told me that it's also possible to do a 4 day tour of Bacolod, Iloilo, and Guimaras. And me being my adventurous self, I drafted a 4 day itinerary which by the way is just perfect for our schedule. It was not strictly followed because of the delays of the ferries and some factors we cannot really control but nonetheless, we all had fun and we were able to go to places that we never knew existed!\u003Ca name='more'\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\n\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\nSo first stop? None other than the \u003Cb\u003ECity of Smiles: Bacolod City\u003C\/b\u003E. Bacolod city is part of Negros Occidental. It is dubbed as the city of smiles because of how friendly the people are. It was also \"The best place to live in the Philippines\" survey winner for MoneySense Magazine in 2008. So aside from the famous MassKara Festival that happens every 3rd week of October and its pride Bacolod Chicken Inasal, what else can we see and do in Bacolod for a day?\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-V3NS_3ZB0ps\/WJLwzGG63pI\/AAAAAAAAHfs\/QMEaiqjOEksBE-E1Gi7j-1jDfJC_GEw2ACEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B14.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-V3NS_3ZB0ps\/WJLwzGG63pI\/AAAAAAAAHfs\/QMEaiqjOEksBE-E1Gi7j-1jDfJC_GEw2ACEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B14.jpg\" title=\"Capitol Park, Bacolod\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\n\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\nUpon arriving at the Bacolod-Silay International Airport, we went straight to the hotel to first drop our bags before we roamed around the city. And since it was also lunch time, we went straight to Aida's Chicken at Manokan Country to try the famous Bacolod chicken inasal. Upon researching, this is where most blogs point to where is the best Bacolod chicken inasal.

Manokan Country is like a place where different eateries are placed in one location. And Aida's chicken used to be one of those eateries. Like a true blood Carinderia, there's no aircon, food is serve in regular plates, basically not your Mang Inasal type. The interior is notable for featuring the MassKara Festival. As for the taste of the food, like what I usually say, taste is subjective so what might be delicious for me tastes gross for you and vice versa. But what I can say about the chicken inasal is that it is a lot better than Mang Inasal. I don't know if it's a little less salty or what.. I can't really remember but I like it better. Aside from the menu given, there are also other food that's being served which are not written in the menu. So if you're trying Aida's, better ask the staff for other food that they're serving. For one, they have oysters for cheap price. They also have bulalo if you want hot soup together with your chicken.\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-lihSXOEPjlw\/WJLwheeQAfI\/AAAAAAAAHfc\/MR1vpkWWvo8J4dARbS4Qq5bxRxrr9zrawCEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B1.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"490\" src=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-lihSXOEPjlw\/WJLwheeQAfI\/AAAAAAAAHfc\/MR1vpkWWvo8J4dARbS4Qq5bxRxrr9zrawCEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B1.jpg\" title=\"Aida's Chicken\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-doFWL1mI7u0\/WJLxMzLE2DI\/AAAAAAAAHgU\/sL5zlaSaK8Q2tCRlP0yZkHa67hCArrd-gCEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B2.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"442\" src=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-doFWL1mI7u0\/WJLxMzLE2DI\/AAAAAAAAHgU\/sL5zlaSaK8Q2tCRlP0yZkHa67hCArrd-gCEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B2.jpg\" title=\"The pride of Bacolod: Chicken Inasal\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ci\u003EAida's version of Bacolod Chicken Inasal\u003C\/i\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\nRight after lunch, we went to SM Bacolod to buy some goodies and to buy \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.oceanjet.net\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EOceanJet\u003C\/a\u003E ferry tickets going to Bacolod from Iloilo. Unfortunately, we weren't able to buy ferry tickets because there's no travel agency that offers it. So if you're travelling to Bacolod\/Iloilo and vice versa, note that you can only buy OceanJet tickets in Bacolod at BREDCO port. They also have other agencies selling across the country but if you're in Bacolod and would like to buy a ferry ticket to Iloilo.. it's only sold at BREDCO port. As for our tickets going to Iloilo from Bacolod, our friend already bought the ticket for us at their MOA branch. Since we'll be arriving at the hype of Dinagyang, we thought that the ticket might get sold out so we opted to buy in advance. It's a little expensive though maybe because of service charge and other charges.\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-nsYfCsR6x0s\/WJLxi9mNrGI\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/dm5dkvpJBy8cesHuHUjDfYqivQG1MKi5gCEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B4.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"620\" src=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-nsYfCsR6x0s\/WJLxi9mNrGI\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/dm5dkvpJBy8cesHuHUjDfYqivQG1MKi5gCEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B4.jpg\" title=\"Dizon Ramos Museum\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-PJliQfbG4Zg\/WJL5Z5gVuJI\/AAAAAAAAHg8\/7B2KCzrhsMwETBXJXD-oQC6H3ei_7687gCLcB\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B11.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-PJliQfbG4Zg\/WJL5Z5gVuJI\/AAAAAAAAHg8\/7B2KCzrhsMwETBXJXD-oQC6H3ei_7687gCLcB\/s640\/Bacolod%2B11.jpg\" title=\"The squad at Dizon Ramos Museum\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\n\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\nWe rest for awhile at the hotel and come 4PM, we then again strolled around the city. Next stop: \u003Cb\u003EDizon Ramos Museum.\u003C\/b\u003E The museum and its family members has a long history. Let's just say that they're part of the most influential people in the country. The museum originally has 2 floors for exhibit but the ground floor is being constructed to be a bed and breakfast soon. After the ground floor, the second floor which houses the oldest furniture and most of the exhibit will also be turned into a bed and breakfast. Entrance fee is P50 inclusive of a tour around the house. For me, this museum is like a gateway to the old times. The pieces are well preserved and some of the appliances are still functioning. And nope, these doesn't house paintings or murals or sculptures. The museum showcases the Dizon-Ramos' family memorabilia. From the old sofa set to kitchenware. I am amazed because this is my first time to actually see the first mac computer, an old type of electric fan, and everything vintage in that matter. \u0026nbsp;\u003Ci\u003EBabaw 'no? :D \u003C\/i\u003EBeing a millenial, seeing decades old stuff really amazes me. Not mentioning that these stuff were used by people that's now successful in their fields and career. It was a nice tour also because every stuff we saw has an explanation. It's not just a sight seeing but you'll also learn and take away something with you when you leave.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/center\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-9zzsdqQluI8\/WJLxnKE1K8I\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/SAypXM-YI_Ill72FRld-Sl_7WO8MjIwrgCEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B5.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"588\" src=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-9zzsdqQluI8\/WJLxnKE1K8I\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/SAypXM-YI_Ill72FRld-Sl_7WO8MjIwrgCEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B5.jpg\" title=\"Front Porch\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-4EghG1h94y4\/WJLxvQFikoI\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/b9tYCjdcGWQI3nGXjt2Ei370_-5JQDDNwCEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B6.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-4EghG1h94y4\/WJLxvQFikoI\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/b9tYCjdcGWQI3nGXjt2Ei370_-5JQDDNwCEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B6.jpg\" title=\"The bedroom\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-ddqzcpEg1Nk\/WJLxz7dIMfI\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/mimJOF6wmFgzWxL6utG_0YzcFhyXzy_LACEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B7.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-ddqzcpEg1Nk\/WJLxz7dIMfI\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/mimJOF6wmFgzWxL6utG_0YzcFhyXzy_LACEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B7.jpg\" title=\"Old memorabilia inside Dizon Ramos Museum\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-T996ZdkQrqA\/WJLxzO79X8I\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/GpYnCM52SzI3vZwvvhDt6Yyf-dg45Tp-ACEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B8.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-T996ZdkQrqA\/WJLxzO79X8I\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/GpYnCM52SzI3vZwvvhDt6Yyf-dg45Tp-ACEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B8.jpg\" title=\"Dizon Ramos Museum, Bacolod City\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-h0bG-MrrV_Y\/WJLx6di3bTI\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/zjaaGDP42-omoRLZamOAZn3UzEcADKvBACEw\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B9.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-h0bG-MrrV_Y\/WJLx6di3bTI\/AAAAAAAAHgo\/zjaaGDP42-omoRLZamOAZn3UzEcADKvBACEw\/s640\/Bacolod%2B9.jpg\" title=\"The dining area at Dizon Ramos Museum\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-qIyf_2Dd160\/WJL5ZgrlTjI\/AAAAAAAAHg4\/2ad4tJ9G22A1WC5yhHy_6f82NF2NJyLrwCLcB\/s1600\/Bacolod%2B10.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Bacolod City, Negros Occidental\" border=\"0\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-qIyf_2Dd160\/WJL5ZgrlTjI\/AAAAAAAAHg4\/2ad4tJ9G22A1WC5yhHy_6f82NF2NJyLrwCLcB\/s640\/Bacolod%2B10.jpg\" title=\"Old bottles\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Ccenter style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003E\nSecond stop for that afternoon is the \u003Cb\u003ECapitol Park and Lagoon.\u003C\/b\u003E This is where the provincial capitol of Negros Occidental is.
