Carvings on the Front Door of the Manila Cathedral |
Intramuros, located along the southern bank of the Pasig River, was built by the Spaniards in the 16th century and is the oldest district of the city of Manila, the capital of the Philippines. Its name, in Spanish, intramuros, literally "within the walls", meaning within the wall enclosure of the city/fortress, also describes its structure as it is surrounded by thick, high walls and moats. During the Spanish colonial period, Intramuros was considered Manila itself. - from Wikipedia.org
I have been to Intramuros a few times and I am always fascinated with its historical artifacts and the history behind it. If it is your first time to go to Manila, I suggest that you visit Intramuros specially if you will be extending your visa because the US Immigration is just around the block from Palace of the Governor. and The Manila Cathedral.
