Manila, a sprawling mass of humanity, is one of Asia's most diverse and energetic cities, acutely reflecting its long heritage as a point of convergence for cultures and classes. Straddling the delta of the Pasig River, the capital of the Philippines is actually several cities fused into one. Tracing Manila Bay from north to south, most visitors will find themselves drawn to the waterfront areas of Ermita and Malate where the superlative tourist attractions of Intramuros and Rizal Park await. Just across the Pasig River lies Binondo's Chinatown and the vivacious outdoor markets of Quiapo. Each sub-city within Manila offers plenty of highlights, depending on what you’re looking for. Some of the world’s biggest shopping malls are here, as well as some of the most vibrant nightlife in the East. At the heart of the city is the historic district, anchored by Intramuros, the centre of power during Spanish colonial rule. The 16th century walled city offers some real treats such as San Agustin Church and its amazing museum, Santiago Fort, and Manila Cathedral. Just next door is Rizal Park, a destination in its own right where museums and monuments dot the green grounds. |
