Malacanan Palace Museum


Malacanan means "MAY LAKAN DIYAN" or a high person is staying at that place. The first owner of Malacanan was Don Rocha, then a general bought it for 1,000 pesos then after he needed to sell the palace and the government finally bought it for 5, 100 pesos! wew. 

The first president who used Malacanan? President Manuel L. Quezon and his family! Our tour guide, Sir Louie said that there are rumours that some staff sometimes see him roaming around the grand staircase or playing his chess set alone! scary!

Anyway, I only chose several pictures to upload but these pictures represent my whole Malacanan Palace Museum experience! :)

Gov @Work is the new program produced by the government
