This is a really beautiful little national park in the heart of the city. There's a church inside. It was formerly a cemetery and there is a strange feel to the whole place.

A really congested bustling and sometimes overwhelming neighbourhood. It worth going along just to see it though and whilst there make sure you check out the Temple of the God of War.

The bay is renowned for playing host to some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world and it's definitely a sight to behold. Harbour square and the Seaside Boulevard are both great places to hang out and have some excellent seafood restaurants. There's also the Cultural Centre of the Philippines nearby and the Ocean Park Aquarium which houses some sharks.

These are some small, beautiful gardens. They have been allowed to become a bit overgrown and the moss covered walls are very evocative. Inside you'll see some beautiful buildings representing different architecture styles. There's the Manilla Cathedral there. My favourite is the San Augustin Church which is a beautiful baroque building. There are some great handicraft shops here too.
