1. The Manila Cathedral
6.1577 Reviews
based on 1.2k reviewsNo.1 of Best Things to Do in Metro Manila
TravelogistWe visited this as part of a Kalesa (horse carriage) tour.I've visited this church several times in the past, but never really to admire it. It's usually weddings or tours where I was there for the company of friends/family and not the tourist attractions. It really is a beautiful church and I wish we were not constrained by time limitations. And I appreciate it much more now since San Agustin Church is usually not open to the public.Manila1 km from downtownFree entry

khccChinatown is not far from Manila Cathedral, about 15 minutes walk. The whole area is a bit old, the streets are relatively narrow, the environment is very general, except for the Chinese gathering, it is not a good place to go shopping.Manila619m from downtownFree entry

Ayoub-blRizal Park, or Luneta, is a chill spot in Manila where you can relax and soak in some history. It’s got green spaces, cool monuments like the Rizal Monument, and plenty of room for walks or picnics. Perfect for a break from the city hustle, whether you’re with family or just want to hang out.Manila1.8 km from downtownFree entry
4. Robinsons Place Manila
4.164 Reviewsbased on 1.0k reviewsNo.7 of Best Things to Do in Metro ManilakhccSince I was staying in a nearby hotel, I walked here for 3 minutes after registering and had lunch on the way. Although it is a bit old, the mall is probably one of the larger shopping malls in the city. It has a complete range of food and entertainment options, and there are many choices to eat. It is a good place for shopping.Manila2.6 km from downtownFree entry

6. San Agustin Church
3.9226 Reviews

中西南北东The Cathedral of St. Augustine in Manila, Philippines, consists of two parts: the chapel and the monastery. The Baroque-style chapel is the architectural essence of the entire St. Augustine, while the monastery is a museum, which houses a large number of precious items such as vestments, golden chalices, silver crosses, ivory statues, silk cloaks embroidered with gold thread, and oil paintings. The focus of this article is the organ in the church, which is rare to see.
As a world historical and cultural heritage, the Cathedral of St. Augustine has also experienced the destruction of war, and many precious collections have been lost in various wars. After the end of World War II, St. Augustine was rebuilt. The church and the first monastery have restored their appearance. In 1965, in order to commemorate the 400 years of the spread of Catholicism in the Philippines, St. Augustine exhibited photos of hundreds of churches built between the 16th and 19th centuries across the country, which gave rise to the idea of creating a museum. Since then, St. Augustine has continuously collected various precious cultural relics lost in various wars and displayed them in the monastery for the public to see. Today, St. Augustine is not only a church and a monastery, but also a museum that houses many Philippine and Spanish art treasures. It is an important place to display the historical and cultural treasures of the Philippines and is well worth visiting. I think a whole day is not enough.Manila1.2 km from downtownFree entry
7. Roxas Boulevard
3.458 ReviewsNo.1 of Night Attractions in Metro Manila中西南北东Roxas Boulevard is a seaside boulevard in Metro Manila, Philippines, along the coast of Manila Bay, famous for its sunsets and coconut trees. The middle section of the road is Rizal Square, which can be said to be equivalent to Tiananmen Square in China, and this road can also be said to be Manila's "Chang'an Avenue".
Roxas Boulevard is one of the landmarks of Philippine tourism. It is surrounded by yacht clubs, hotels, restaurants, commercial buildings and parks, as well as the Philippine "Zero Kilometer" sign. Visitors can take a horse-drawn carriage and slowly explore the streets.Manila3.2 km from downtownFree entry
8. Divisoria Public Market
3.312 Reviewsbased on 438 reviews
多多Of course, there are lots of counterfeits, but most look good and may fool most casual customers. In my opinion, on this crowded island, you can find the best price between the main islands. Bakit hindi. This market is definitely a great place for tourists who want to experience the true local city and culture, with everything there is and great local street food. Some parts of the market are really crowded and dirty, but isn't that the very real side of the Philippines? I read some reviews online saying it's unsafe and pickpockets are everywhere. Very overstatement! In fact, you will encounter the same problem in any lively market in the world, you must be more careful, such as not carrying backpacks. The people here are very enthusiastic and great, they are willing to chat with you, there is no strangeness at all. I think this market is a place for everyone who comes to Manila to visit! By the way, pay attention to the fake goods here when shopping, such as watches and bags, don't be greedy for cheap!Manila1.1 km from downtownFree entry
9. Binondo Church.
3.343 Reviewsbased on 203 reviews多多From the outside, this church should be very historic, but the interior decoration has been replaced by modern style, especially the ceiling murals, which look like ordinary paintings and lack a sense of history. Binondo Church is located in the Binondo District of Manila. It is a very beautiful church with a whole mural on the ceiling and a garden square in front of the church.Manila544m from downtownFree entry
10. Manila City Hall
