A walled Spanish city in a megacity
Manila is the vast, energetic capital of the Philippines. Its oldest part is Intramuros, the walled city built by the Spanish, where Fort Santiago and San Agustin Church, the country's oldest stone church, survive. Nearby, Rizal Park honours the national hero José Rizal, and the National Museum complex holds the country's great art and archaeology. Binondo, said to be the world's oldest Chinatown, is the place to eat, while Makati and Bonifacio Global City are the modern business and dining districts.
