Rejuvenate and refresh yourself with these public parks in Taguig City.
Pasig once was called the "Green City", gained its reputation in having green spaces among its neighboring cities. In the recent years, with the continuous developments of the cities in Metro Manila, Taguig City is sharing its effort to give back to its people, Taguigenos, and to the environment.
I've been residing in Taguig majority of my lifetime, I must admit that concretes already overtaken the land of this humble city. While the progress is there, I am thankful that the people in position do not forget to leave us with these spaces we all can use for recreation and for us to breathe and appreciate the city.
The 1.6-kilometer park that lies next to Manila Golf and Country Club in Forbes, Makati is traversing from McKinley Parkway to Kalayaan Avenue Exit.
The park is near the other green spaces such as BGC Greenways Linear Park and Pacific Plaza Towers Park.
In November 2023, the LGU recreated the park as "Christmas by the Lake" in celebration for Christmas. Last February, they reopened the TLC Village for the Valentines Day with a theme, "Love at the Park". Today, there are parts of the park where you can do recreational activities like doing exercise and cardio.
The Adopt-A-Park project is a collaborative effort between MMDA and the local government units in Metro Manila to develop or beautify underutilized parks in the existing open spaces in cities towards lessening the environmental impacts caused by the growing urban decay.

This 6.5-meter tall bronze-and-brass masterpiece commissioned by the Bonifacio Art Foundation serves as a symbol of life, stability, and nature preservation. Surrounded by a grove of trees, the artwork has become a romantic rendezvous point for couples, adding to the charm and appeal of the park.
