Balay ni Tana Dicang
An 1883 wooden heritage house in Talisay, famous for hosting several Philippine presidents and for the legendary story of its matriarch, Tana Dicang.
Tana Dicang House was built in 1883. Its owner, Enrica Lizares, known as Tana Dicang, was one of the most prominent mansion matriarchs in Negros at the end of the 19th century, and her family once hosted several Philippine presidents here. The wooden mansion preserves its original furniture, kitchen, family portraits, and living room, and guides tell visitors the story of the family. Admission is around 100 pesos. Open roughly 9:00 AM–5:00 PM; closed on Mondays. Located in central Talisay, about 4 km from The Ruins, so the two can be visited on the same afternoon.
