Manila Hotels
The capital of the Philippines, Manila is a constantly growing metropolitan area that is comprised of 12 cities and five municipalities. Home to more than nine million people, it offers an endless array of entertainment, cultural attractions, and natural wonders. The city also boasts sweeping views of Manila Bay, most well-known for its beautiful sunsets.
An earthquake in the 1800s destroyed many of Manila's historical buildings. They have since been rebuilt, so as visitors stroll through the city they'll find the Manila skyline is a perfect combination of modern skyscrapers and architectural treasures that span many eras.
The Manila Baywalk is a well-known area between the U.S. Embassy and Cultural Center of the Philippines. Here, visitors will find outdoor restaurants, open-air patios, and nightly live music, as well as the occasional morning runner. Ayala Avenue is another popular spot — the shopping district boasts elite boutiques with brand-name labels. Other must-see attractions while in this vibrant city include Iglesia ni Cristo (Church of Christ), the National Museum of the Philippines, Taal Volcano, and many more.
