intramuros...the old spanish capital of manila
so i went around manila myself today to around rizal park and intramuros...doctor rizal is a national hero for the philippines and they really respect him alot as he died for the country...then intramuros was built during the spanish occupation as a fortress to protect manila...armed with little cannons around the border of intramuros...and u can really feel the spanish atmosphere while walking around those spanish building as compared to other parts of manila...also managed to visit san augustin church...one of the oldest church in philippines...
