Metro Manila evolved from its humble
beginnings as a tiny tribal settlement at the mouth
of a natural harbor into a bustling metropolis that
is now the center of government, business,
commerce and education.
Metro Manila is composed of four cities and 13
municipalities, covering an area of 630 square
kilometers. Manila is the country's capital, and
premier gateway to the country.
Metro Manila is a delightful mix of old and new: of
age-old traditions and modern-day attractions;
centuries-old buildings and gleaming high-rise
structures; quaint street stalls and modern
shopping malls; stately museums and
discotheques and bars.
The Spanish colonizers moved the capital of the
Philippines from Cebu to Manila in 1571. During
that same year, the Spaniards started building
Intramuros, the Walled City, as the seat of Church
and State. History echoes within the walls of this
fortress-complex and a tour of this landmark will
provide the visitor a deeper understanding of
Manila's rich heritage.
Among the more popular attractions in lntramuros
are:
Fort Santiago, the headquarters of Spanish
military troops and prison to thousands of
Filipinos including the country's national hero:
Jose Rizal Manila Cathedral and San Agustin
Church, two of the oldest churches in the country
filled with an extensive collection of religious
artifacts Casa Manila, a reconstructed 19th
century mansion replete with 16th to 19th century
furniture and furnishings.

Outside of Intramuros is Rizal Park, a place of relaxation for Filipinos. Rizal Park is a wide expanse of manicured
grounds and spouting fountains complete with an open air auditorium, Chinese and Japanese Gardens, a
children's playground and a skating rink. The remains of Jose Rizal Monument.
The Cultural Center of the Philippines Complex is the arts center of the country. It is the favored venue for ballet
presentations, concerts, stage plays and other performances. Within the complex is Coconut Palace, which is a
living testament to the Filipino architectural genius. Almost the entire structure is made of materials from the
coconut tree mixed with other indigenous materials. Also within the CCP' Complex are the Philippine International
Convention Center (PICC) and the Philippine Center for international Trade and Exhibit (PHILCITE). While at the
CCP Complex, visitors must not miss watching the spectacular sunset at Manila Bay.
