A Quick Tour Inside Hacienda Don Juan, Sarangani

September 29, 2014 , , , , 0 Comments

Being the oldest town of the SoCCSKSarGen region, Glan Sarangani does not only boast with white sand beaches but also they have rich heritage structures that date back a hundred years ago. Last September 12, 2014 we were lucky enough to take a sneak peek at the 76 years old ancestral house of the Escobal Family at Brgy. Lagu just before they open their doors to the public. Let me take you to a quick tour inside the Hacienda Don Juan.


The interior of this house was reworked through the efforts of Allen Carino – Escobar Family’s nephew, designer and caretaker. One can instantly feel its nostalgic appeal the moment you enter inside the house as it is filled with intricate architectures, wooden furniture, paintings, old musical instruments, accessories and many more. Check out the video.
