Must-see Sights at DLSU-D

We conducted a survey to our fellow lasallians regarding their favorite sights here in La Salle. Here are the results.


Top 5 Acacia Ave.




Sounds creepy, eh? Yes. People are not allowed to walk along that avenue but it really is soothing to stroll there. One time I tried to walk there and I almost forgot that I am in the city. You get to breathe fresh air and appreciate mother earth. If you visit La Salle, you might wanna sneak to get to stroll along Acacia Ave. Experience the creeps and serenity at the same time.


Top 4 Botanical Garden





It Is one of the biggest evidence of La Salle’s campaign to a greener living. In there, you will find cottages where you can review, hang out with friends, or do your emo part away from all kinds of pollution. There are two greenhouses at the Botanical Garden. There is also an area where herbal plants are planted. What you must try is to pass along the bridge connecting the botanical garden and Alumni Hall. It is the best place in La Salle where you can explore and learn different types of plants.


Top 3 Lake





The lake in La Salle is breathtakingly beautiful. It is very rare that you will find a lake inside a campus that’s why it is one of the must-see sights. It looks very calm though it is sort of flowing. Surrounding it, you will see, are beautiful trees and plants that makes the view a whole lot more pleasing to the eyes. In some special situations, and with the permission of the authorities in La Salle, you can row a boat and take a closer look at the lake.


Top 2 DLSUD Museum





The Museum of De La Salle Dasmarinas is located beside the lake and at the back of Café Museo and is also near the Campus’ Church. The Museum contains old church artifacts and relics. Such artifacts are the old relic of some saints and antique furniture and paintings related to the church. The museum continuous to preserve and care for this artifacts that symbolizes the old history behind this artifacts and let the future generation of Lasallians witness the wide and rich culture of the church. One of the universities here in the Philippines that has its own museum, the museum is a place for learning and let Lasallians be aware of the old history of our Roman Catholic Faith.


Top 1 Rotonda





The Rotonda is located near the gate 1 and the building of College of International Hospitality Management and near the Julian Felipe Hall Building. The statue of St. John Baptist De La Salle stands tall and represents the Patron saint of teachers. Saint Jean-Baptiste de La Salle or John Baptist de La Salle (30 April 1651 – 7 April 1719) was a French priest, educational reformer, and founder of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. Saint John Baptist De La Salle is an example of person that dedicated his life for the sake of the Institution and for the love of children. The statue of St. John Baptist De La Salle is built in the rotonda in honor of his marvelous deeds and for establishing De La Salle Schools.
