Laperal Mansion, the official presidential guest house for diplomats
The Laperal Mansion is set to serve as the official Presidential Guest House for foreign heads of state or government. This establishment embodies the Filipino’s brand of hospitality and the President’s intent to strengthen and expand the Philippines’ relations with its partners in the international community

As part of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.'s commitment to treasuring and preserving the country's history while strengthening the diplomatic ties, a guided tour of the nation's most historic homes was recently organized for ambassadors assigned to the Philippines. The tour was a showcase of Filipino culture and is a part of the ongoing efforts of the President to restore and preserve Philippine heritage sites.

Diplomats were welcomed at the Goldenberg Mansion, a former presidential guest house and led next door to the Teus Mansion, a 19th-century home that currently houses the Presidential Museum. Ambassadors walked through exhibits that charted the evolution of Philippine leadership — including their triumphs and pitfalls. Teus, a home with a past as colorful as its facade, now serves as a treasure trove of priceless pieces of Philippine history.

The tour continued to Bahay Ugnayan, a home that holds the current president's "Road to Malacañang," a fascinating insight into his milestones leading up to his return to the palace.
All three historic homes have been restored as museums, and are open to the public, free of charge.
