The Campuestohan Highland Resort in the Philippines’ Negros Occidental province was recently awarded the Guinness record for the highest rooster-shaped building.
Standing 114 feet, 7 inches tall, the Rooster Hotel at Campuestohan Highland Resort is quite a sight. It’s not only shaped like the domestic bird, but actually looks like a giant realistic rooster dominating the entire area with its imposing stance. Ricardo Cano Gwapo Tan, the director of the resort, told journalists that he wanted to create something eye-catching that also paid homage to the local culture, of which gamefowl is a huge part. Negros Occidental has a gamefowl breeding industry that employs millions of Filipinos, so he hopes some of them will want to spend a night in one of the 15 air-conditioned rooms of the new hotel.
