#100waysoftravel #manila #philipines Manila is a metropolitan area with a population of over 10 million. The metropolis is called Metro Manila, but is often simply called Manila by foreigners and non-residents, and consists of 17 cities and municipalities. This article is about the city; see Metro Manila for the metropolitan area. It is the second most populous city in the Philippines after Quezon City, the former capital of the Philippines. Manila and its surrounding areas were unified as Metro Manila to facilitate the management of this super-growth area. Today, the city and its metropolis thrive as cultural and economic centers. But the city also suffers from problems of overpopulation, traffic congestion, and pollution.

We went to Nagsasa Cove, Zambales last December 2023 with my workmates and we had the most wonderful experience. From our boat ride going there, we were in awe of the amazing view especially when we have arrived there. This place is the best place if you are looking for a place for tranquility and relaxation as it is very quiet and all you have to do is wander the amazing view. We will definitely go back here and hoping to meet other tourists. #zambalesphilippines #nagsasa #relax #tranquility #wander #philipines

#manilatrip Fort Santiago was built in 1571 by the Spanish as a citadel for Manila. It was badly damaged during World War II. Since 1953 it has been reconstructed, and ongoing work continues. It is within the old historical part of Manila known as the Intramuros. There is a lot of interest within the fort, both historically, and shops selling all sorts of food and souvenirs. There is an entry charge. When we visited it was 75 pesos for adults, but as seniors (even not locals) we got in for 50 pesos each. #travel #urbanexplorer #mytripvlog #awesomepic #summervacation #passionpassport #manila #philipines

#manilatrip This museum is part of the National Museum Complex, which also houses the National Museum of Fine Arts and the National Museum of Anthropology. The museum is free of charge, but leave your backpack in storage (also free). The museum is a repository of species that can be found in the Philippines, but there are plenty of them. In every floor and section of the museum, you’ll find different kinds of ecosystems where those species thrive. There was also a life-size model of Lolong, probably the world’s largest saltwater crocodile that has ever lived or captured. #travel #urbanexplorer #mytripvlog #awesomepic #summervacation #passionpassport #manila #philipines

#myhiddengems Hidden in the beautiful island of Palawan, Philippines, is Coconut Beach. After a scooter ride in Puerto Princesa, you will find this hidden gem. Swooping palm trees cover the beach and golden sand covers this beautiful island. You can swim in the crystal clear, warm water, with just a few people in sight. What makes this place unique is the small community that live here, with a family of pigs that call this place their home. You will find the pigs in the water and is reminiscent of the instagram worthy countries that have similar surroundings. It’s a gorgeous, off the beaten track gem that I can’t recommend enough. Go to the Philippines, then take another flight to Palawan and visit this perfect place, you won’t regret it.#palawan #philipines #beaches #Pigsonbeach #hiddengem

We booked a hotel few train stops away from Intramuros. It was sunny and hot but the view inside the place was gorgeous. Also, there was not much of tourist at that time so we could get pictures of the entire place as much as we can. Overall, it was okay and accessible to the public. Will surely be back again.#intramuros #manila #philipines

Mactan Cebu airport Terminal 2 Pluses - currency exchange near gate and before border control - nice coffee shops and places to eat - duty free with famious brands - fast border control Minuses - guard on the enter asking for printed ticket or show on the screen of smartphone e-ticket. it's a problem if you not have internet and purchased ticket through app. So, best way to have sim card with internet or printed e-ticket in advance. #philipines #cebu #mactan #cebu_airport

The hotel we stayed in was in good location with friendly andd helpful staffs. Vicinity was pretty good, we love that there were bar and restaurants right outside and you dont have to grab delivery or go far to have your meals (only image we took). Also closeby to Ayala Mall and city centre. We didnt get to take exact photo of the hotel as we only stayed overnight and travel to the next destination. We will surely come back again. #WhenInCebu #Philipines
