it will be wishful thinking to find too many pictures, unless they build a taller building near it to get a vantage point

but i hope some pbcom executives share pictures of their penthouse meetings, xmas parties, etc. I am sure they hold their xmas party up there.

Yesterday, I visited the Albay Park and Wildlife in Bogtong, Legazpi. The last time I was in the place was before the typhoons struck. Fortunately, the park is still up and running, a popular destination for local and domestic tourists especially families. Entrance fee is 20 pesos for adults, 10 for kids.

Description: A picnic grove and a park rolled into one, this place is the best way to commune with nature right in the heart of Legazpi City. Have a satisfying get together with your family and friends while roaming the park which houses 347 animals belonging to 75 species.

For complete list of animals and more information click here

Entrance (I forgot to take a photo of the entrance! lol so I borrowed this from the Albay tourism site)

Map

Ligñon Hill in the background

Ornamental Plants/Garden

Admin Building

A nice place to relax and commune with nature

Benches and shaded areas

Flowers make the place more pleasing to the eyes

The gardens are well-maintained

The butterfly garden (kaso locked so i didnt get to see any flutterbys lol)

More benches

A family of deers

^Find the deer

Tiger

This is one of the most popular areas of the Park even though the tiger is almost always quite lethargic and just keeps lazing around at the back. I couldn't take a picture of the tiger itself because he/she was too far back in his/her cage to be visible in the camera's viewfinder

Meanwhile, let's settle for a miniature 'tiger' instead.....

saw this kitty leisurely strolling just outside the tiger's cage

[dx] · November 16th, 2007, 09:31 AM

more monkeys they're in there somewhere, just not that visible in the photo lol

The Legazpi Airport Tower (view from inside the park)

The park is lush and verdant, still the same beautiful and relaxing tambayan I knew since college days.

ano ba iyan, puro ortigas na lang, i hope makati folks could send pictures of their roofdeck amenities. And i suppose the rockwell, eastwood, and fort boni residents have several of their own.
AWESOME, JAW_DROPPING shots, btw, Vavaboom. Thanks!

Very nice! Nasa alapaap ang kumuha ng pic na ito.

Do we have penthouse restaurants in the Philippines? I would imagine it would be a big hit amongst the 'hip' and sophisticated clientele.

Something like the one in Bangkok - Sirocco.
