Walk Old Manila at your leisure

Have I told you I love Flickr? Well, I do, since I’ve been meeting engaging photo-enthusiasts that side of the Pacific. (By that, I mean Philippines). They have generously shared their photos of their travels across the Philippines such as in the Tubbataha Reef, the Malacanang Palace of the North, Paoay Church, Ilocos Norte sand dunes, Intramuros and many others.

Just last night I emailed one cool guy who let me use his photos, with proper permission, and then pointed me to one great resource for travel!  OLD MANILA WALKS! Yes, I did use “walk” and “Manila” in one sentence. Along with “leisure“…

old-manila-walks

By their description -

We’re a bunch of passionate, obsessive and saucy ‘street walkers’(!) determined to walk and talk about one thing: the history, the culture and the heritage plus everything over, under, outside, inside this city of our affections - Manila.

And we believe that the best way to explore our city is by foot so we have taken this experience one step further!

Take a walking eating tour of Binondo, the best way to taste and see Chinatown… stroll through power with a Malacanang tour… or how about explore the ancient city of Intramuros?  

Next time I’m in Manila… this is one of my stops!

For schedule, directions, rants, raves or just about anything about our fair city;
