With centuries of history and culture, the city is filled with colonial-era buildings, churches, and museums that take you back to the past, as well as modern high-rise buildings. Manila is also where you find the world-renowned Binondo Chinatown, the oldest Chinatown in the world, as well as the National Museum of the Philippines, where you can explore the country’s rich history and culture.

From the bustling streets of the Quiapo district to the fine dining of the Makati area. Enjoy the city’s unique cuisine and world-class nightlife, and explore its many diverse neighborhoods. Traffic is chaotic, pollution is high, and the heat and humidity are intense, but Manila is a city that is always moving and always fascinating.
