[Impressions]
It was raining heavily in the morning and we were worried about what would happen, but by the time we arrived in Manila the rain had stopped and we were blessed with perfect weather for sightseeing.
In Intramuros, the streets from the Spanish colonial era remain, and I was impressed by the depth of history.
At Casa Manila, life at that time was recreated, and it felt like I had traveled back in time.
At Fort Santiago, I was impressed by the history surrounding Jose Rizal.
At the last stop, the Mall of Asia, I enjoyed shopping along with the Ferris wheel and the seaside scenery,
and it was a fulfilling holiday.

This is the old town of Manila, a walled city built by the Spanish in the 16th century. The cobblestone streets and historical buildings have been preserved, and you can feel the Spanish culture of that time. There are many cafes and galleries, and it is a popular area for tourists.
2. Casa Manila
A museum from the Spanish colonial era in Intramuros, the furniture and interior are recreated to give you an idea of the lifestyle of the time. The beautiful Spanish-style gardens and decorations make you feel as if you have traveled back in time.
3. Fort Santiago
A fortress from the Spanish colonial era, it is an iconic spot in Intramuros. It was once a military facility and is famous for being the place where Philippine hero Jose Rizal was imprisoned. Not only can you experience history, but it also has beautiful gardens and observation spots.
