Manila – where East meets West
Fly to Manila and visit one of the oldest cities in the world.
The Philippines’ capital is a hive of towers and temples, cathedrals and churches. Its history means it’s a city that is as influenced by Spain and the United States as it is by its Asian neighbours.
One of the most densely populated cities on the planet, the capital acts as the gateway to the archipelago nation of the Philippines, made up of more than 7,000 islands.
Head to the former walled Spanish city of Intramuros, home to the city’s museums and rich colonial architecture.
Wander through Quinta Market in downtown Manila and soak up the sights and sounds of this beating heart of daily life in the capital.
Afterwards, explore the grounds of the Mabini Shrine and discover the story of the fight for Filipino independence. Book your flights to Manila with Etihad Airways today.

Reasons to visit Manila
Filipino flavours
For a real taste of Manila, head to the city’s vibrant markets. There may be glitzy new shopping malls popping up across the city, but this is the best way to experience local retail.
The Soderno Night Food Market is for you if you want to indulge in the best Filipino street food around. You can also pick up novelty items and fashion products at this dynamic night spot. Fresh fruit, seafood, seared lechon and hearty stews are to be found amidst the bustling stalls and market vendors.
Beautiful Spanish architecture
As soon as your plane tickets to Manila are in hand, it’s time to start planning an itinerary to take you through all the historic monuments. Dating back to the era of Spanish rule, Fort Santiago is one of Manila’s star attractions. Step through the iconic gate to see the saints staring down from ornately carved walls. Inside you can learn about Filipino heroes and tour the former dungeons.
The ornate green interiors of San Agustin Church house great cultural exhibits, while Rizal Park is leafy and relaxing. Visit all the basilicas for a true taste of this city’s unique story.
Compelling museums
The National Museum of the Philippines oversees several great collections spread through the capital, including the Museum of the Filipino People, and the National Art Gallery. Bahay Tsinoy celebrates the history of Chinese people in the Philippines – Manila became home to the world’s first Chinatown in 1594.
Science fans can get involved with over 250 interactive exhibits at the Mind Museum, the science museum in the central business district. Sweet-toothed travellers will adore the Dessert Museum, which has eight delicious exhibitions that are popping with candy cane colours.
Things to know before you fly to Manila
Plugs
The Philippines uses type A, B and C plugs, usually with two or three pins. Standard voltage and frequency is 220V/60Hz. Remember to buy an adaptor beforehand should you require one.
Language
There are over 170 languages in the Philippines, though the official languages in Manila are English and Filipino. If you travel elsewhere in the Philippines, you’ll find that other islands have more prevalent forms of communication, including Mandarin, Tagalog and various local languages.
Getting around
With stops at most of the major tourist attractions and key districts, the metro line makes navigating the city relatively easy. There are also plenty of buses, local jeepneys (large cars that ferry multiple passengers) and bike taxis available across the city.
Public holidays
The whole of Manila comes together to honour Manila Day on 24 June, a public holiday celebrating the founding of the city in 1571. Locals in Manila and across the country cook up a feast to enjoy with family and friends and celebrate Filipino culture.
