  • Favorite Thing: Manila has all kinds of areas.Makati with its business and skylines. Malate with bars and cafees and also known as the tourist area.Chinatown is just what the name says-great place for shopping ! Quiapo is the muslim part of Manila and is also a great shopping place-but take care as there is some outlaws here.

  • Favorite Thing: Most places in Philippines you will meet the TRICYKLE.Its a cheap and fast way to get around on a special trip.In parts of Manila its not aloud to use tricykle as they mess up the trafik to much.The PEDICAP is also a tricykle but without engine (what a work in the heat ! ).

     It's not only the Japanese who destroyed the once beautiful Manila. As they retreated they burned the houses and buildings and brutally killed the people in between (est. at 100,000). The Americans bombed the remainder.

     I don't find this fair: while an american kid who's caught doing drugs will end up in http://www.drugrehab.net/ or in a juvenile correction center, another kid from Manila will end up in jail for the same crime.

     Phew, just looking at the smog in the main picture made me want to cough! Nice page though!

     Yes, indeed Manila is a city of many contrasts. Still, I do love this city. Great site!
