Nothing much to do in here. You can't go near the mansion itself you can only go near the gate, we only had our pictures taken there.

There's a long straight path going there, so making fun of it, we enjoyed taking jump shots and doing marathon going to the end. Just watch... More

Teh good part about our visit to The Mansion was that it looks very beautiful - and the ornate gates outside are a popular ptoo point. The bad part was that you are not allowed inside - you cannot even walk in the gardens, hence end up spending more time getting here, than staying here! However, it makes a good... More

The only thing to do here is take pictures from a distance. You can't go up to the mansion, you're limited to just past the gate. Okay to stop at if you're at Wright park already, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get here.

It was my first time to see this place. and it was boring! Nothing to do here. Activities are limited. Like, seeing The Mansion from afar, and picture taking. You will not be able to see the inside. Good thing that it doesn't have entrance fee.

The Mansion house has a very huge park, a big gate and secured by a lot of military personel. The house is located at the middle, unfortunately you will not be able to see inside it because no one is allowed to go inside aside from the president of the country. If they are able to plant more flowers inside... More

Pros: You can see the "Mansion" from afar Beautiful landscape garden Cons: Other than that you cannot enter as it is the official resthouse of the president
