Where Is Manila In The Philippines?
Manila, the capital city of the Philippines, is situated on the eastern shore of Manila Bay, and lies on the western edge of the largest and most populous island in the Philippines, known as Luzon. The region stands 810 miles from the rest of mainland Asia.
What Is Manila Known For?
Despite its internationally recognized name of “Pearl of the Orient,” we think that the city of Manila is more like the sparkling centrepiece within the Oriental crown, indestructible against outside forces and still shining bright. No stranger to hardship and destruction, the capital city of the Philippines has endured natural and man-made disaster, one after another. However, the buzzing metropolis stands strong as a sprawling and diverse cityscape, an amalgamation of opulent wealth and grinding poverty. In the same place where skyscrapers seem to touch the sky, rolling shanty towns surround its feet. The tooting of horns and the snarl of traffic is a constant acoustic accompaniment that mixes with the hum of numerous Tagalog conversations. With several sightseeing landmarks that can be spotted from tourist buses, there is also plenty to see when exploring the streets on foot, from edgy galleries to speakeasy bars, or artisan markets to elegant cafes.
A Quick Guide to Manila
- Fort Santiago: Guarding the entrance to the Pasig River, Fort Santiago is one of the most important historical sites in Manila. A standing tribute to the national hero of the Philippines, José Rizal, Fort Santiago serves as a reminder of his sacrifice. Once the building in which he was incarcerated whilst awaiting his execution, the fort is now awash in sublime beauty and peaceful tranquility, as it stands as an oasis of intricately manicured gardens, ornate fountains, and decorated plazas. Explore the several fascinating displays of memorabilia attributed to Rizal, then marvel at the detailed recreation of his cell and the courtroom trial. Walk alongside the embedded bronze footsteps of Rizal as he walked to his execution and feel the rich history of the fort seep through every pore. Once a place of pain and sorrow, Fort Santiago is now plentiful with beauty and peace.
- Rizal Park: Connect with nature as you take a leisurely stroll within this park that sprawls out for over 60 hectares. Composed of open lawns, magnificent ornamental gardens, meticulously kept ponds, walks paved with stone, and rugged wooded areas, Rizal Park is not only a tribute to the hero of the Philippines, but also tips its hat to the varying beauty of nature. Walk deep within the park and discover the Rizal Monument, where the hero’s mortal remains rest peacefully, guarded by soldiers in full regalia.
- San Agustin Church: Influenced by some of the most magnificent churches built by the Augustinians in Mexico, San Agustin Church has stood strong throughout time. The oldest church in the Philippines, San Agustin is also a place of sublime beauty. Awash in peace and magnificent splendor, where artistic details are painted into every corner and intricate trompe l’oeil frescoes decorate the vaulted ceiling, the church promises not only a sensational treat for the eyes, but also a balm for the soul and historical stimulant for the mind.
