Manila city tour
A tour of Manila provides one with an introduction to the country's history which dates back from the Spanish colonization till the American and Japanese occupation. It takes in the historical, cultural and religious sites of the country, all of which help make it the political, social, cultural, religious, educational, industrial and commercial center of the country. Manila's city tour starts with a visit to Rizal Park, named in honour of the country’s national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal. After a brief picture stop, proceed to the historic Walled City of Intramuros. Travel through the cobbled streets of San Agustin Church, the country’s oldest stone church and view its wide collection of ecclesiastical icons, vestments and other religious articles. Across it is Casa Manila, a reproduction of 19th century house equipped with Oriental and European decor, as well as Philippine antique furniture. Continue on to Fort Santiago, Manila’s main line of defense against invaders from the sea. The stone fort guards the entrance to the city from Manila Bay and the site of many tragic moments in Philippine History. From the Fort, drive to Quiapo, Manila’s central district, often referred to as the heart of Manila with its market, pilgrimage church of the Black Nazarene, jeepney terminals and bazaars. Then proceed to the Chinese Cemetery, where the mausoleums are as big and as elaborate as houses and where fusions of Buddhist and Christian religions are very much in evidence. End the tour with a drive by Ayala Avenue or via Roxas Boulevard, the city's seaside drive.
