Take a conducted tour of our own Palace in the Sky

IN a beautiful place called Tagaytay, just south of Manila in the Philippines, Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos built a magnificent, if ostentatious, hideaway known locally as the Palace in the Sky. It is built on a hill overlooking the famous Lake Taal with its multiple islands, volcanoes and lush green surrounds.

Unfortunately for the Marcos family, their palace wasn’t quite finished before their eventual demise.

The Filipinos, in their wisdom, however, have left it so to this day as a decaying monument to the gross excesses of the Marcos regime.
