Oh, the places that I go.

Palace in the Sky, Tagaytay City, Philippines

Upon probably the highest corner of the mountains of Tagaytay sits the defunct mansion of the infamous former President Ferdinand Marcos, thus rendering the alias “Palace in the Sky.” It was built in purpose of hosting the official state visit of former US President Ronald Reagan and his wife. Sizing from the area that the mansion occupied, it would have truly been a palace and a definite go-to spot of the elites today had its construction pushed through.

Today, the infrastructure provides a place to wander about for tourists and locals alike, offering a delightful view of the city and of course, Taal Volcano. It also houses several souvenir stalls from which people could buy assorted products made in or for Tagaytay City.
