The coolest place to jog in Bacolod City is "open" for only two hours! 🏃♂️💨
The area around Centrale Bacolod is an awesome place to walk, run, and just have fun. 👟✨ It’s much too hot during the day, but once 5:30 PM hits, crowds descend on the La Salle Avenue road in Eroreco to eat, chill, and hang out. 🕔🌇
Centrale has a newly constructed perimeter road along its wall, which is where everyone goes for their afternoon walks. 🚶♂️🧱
Kids love this place—you'll see them riding bikes, having picnics, and even flying kites. 🚲🧺🪁 There's a big billboard here and the "de facto" picnic spot is the shady area where the big billboard casts a long shadow. 🏙️👤
The air is noticeably fresher here, and because there are no tall buildings to obstruct the view, you get a perfect, panoramic look at the mountains. 🍃⛰️ I easily got my 10,000 steps while walking and enjoying the view!
One of the absolute highlights of this spot is watching the sunset. 🌅 If you time it right, the sun touches the tip of one of the distant buildings on Lacson Street, making it look exactly like a glowing candle or a torch! 🕯️🔥
You have roughly two hours to enjoy the sunset and mountain views before it gets too dark to continue. ⏳🌚 Over on La Salle Avenue, people bring their own foldable chairs just to sit back and relax. 🪑🧘♂️ We saw a car showing off their sound system! 🚗🔊
However, some people who chill on La Salle Avenue and some use the picnic spots love to litter. 🚮😤 Let’s not be those people. Let’s keep the place clean for the next group so everyone can enjoy it! 🚮💚
