City of Smile!!!!
By jIvE, 12/11/06
What can i say this is where I grew up, Bacolod is well known for its sugar plantation, and for being the sweetest ladies in Philippines, It's once awardeed as one of the cleanest and greenest city in Philippines and its where you see and enjoy the fun of Maskarra where people in different races comes to celebrate the occasion with a Smiling Mask on their face (think about Rio de Janero but with a twist)
