Dubbed the Taj Mahal of the Philippines, The Ruins in Talisay, Negros Occidental, is the skeletal remains of a grand Italianate mansion built in the early 1900s by a wealthy sugar baron as a tribute to his wife. The mansion was intentionally burned during World War II to prevent its use by the Japanese, leaving behind a hauntingly beautiful concrete shell. It is especially stunning when illuminated at night.
