The commotion that never seems to end, the streets crammed to the last inch don’t paint a nice picture. But that’s where the secret to having a fun holiday lies.
Intramuros: the oldest part of the city
The contrast between the oldest part of the city and the region around it is profound. The way the houses line the streets give you the feeling that you are in a European city. You can journey the city on foot or by a horse-drawn carriage.
Visit Ayala Museum
Located in close proximity to Berjaya Makati Hotel, the museum encapsulates the city’s history. The museum was established in 1974 and displays a collection of valued items pertaining to the country’s maritime and colonial history.
Culinary Fare
For a bit of upscale dining, you can pop into one of the hotels in Makati. But other than that, if you want to grab something cheap, the streets of Manila are brimming with local specialities.
Bonifacio Global City
Other than what you see in museums, Manila is known for street art. If you go to Bonifacio Global City, you can see buildings painted with massive murals.
