Manila Ocean Park

I really enjoy seeing aquariums like this. There are quite a lot of shows, including penguins, sea lions, reptiles, and jellyfish. There’s also a special aquarium for sharks. However, I recommend not going on weekends because you’ll have to compete with other visitors for photo spots.

Fort Santiago

Historical park with a lot of greenery. For history enthusiasts, highlights include the Rizal Museum and underground tunnels detailing Japanese atrocities during WWII. You also get a great view of the river.

This is free for everyone to see. At the entrance, Spoliarium will great you! This is an amazing piece of art. Huge! Inside, you will see all the amazing art pieces by Filipino artist. The atmosphere is good, and temperature is just okay.

Surrounded by multiple national museums covering a wide area and close to Intramuros - two must-visit places in a Manila itinerary.

super Nice . a little bit expensive but your entrance fee is super worth it because you can see many kinds of animals inside.

San Agustin Church

中西南北东
The St. Augustine Cathedral in Manila, Philippines, consists of two parts: chapel and monastery. The Baroque chapel is the architectural essence of the entire St. Augustine, while the monastery is partly a museum, with a large collection of precious items such as French clothes, the Holy Grail of gold, silver crosses, ivory statues, silk mantles embroidered with gold threads and oil paintings. The focus of this article is on the organ inside the church, which is rare to see. As a world historical and cultural heritage, St. Augustine's Cathedral has also experienced the destruction of war, and many precious collections have been lost in successive wars. After World War II, St. Augustine was rebuilt. The church and the First Abbey restored the appearance of the year, and in 1965, to commemorate 400 years of Catholic transmission in the Philippines, St. Augustine exhibited photographs of hundreds of churches built across the country between the 16th and 19th centuries, which spawned the idea of creating a museum. Since then, St. Augustine has continuously collected various precious cultural relics lost in the wars and displayed in the monastery for public viewing. Today, St. Augustine is not only a church, a monastery, but also a museum that collects many Filipino and Spanish art treasures. It is an important place to display the historical and cultural treasures of the Philippines and is worth visiting. I feel that it is not enough to spend a whole day.

Manila Bay

The view of Manila city can be seen from here. It’s best to visit at dusk when it’s windy and the weather is not too hot. There are many cafés, restaurants, and food vendors as well.
