Roam the old town

Manila’s old town, the Intramuros district, was built in the 16^th and 17^th centuries, making it a similar age to some of the historic buildings in Munich’s Altstadt.

Once the political and military heart of Spain’s Asian colonies, enjoy wandering through its cobbled streets and admiring the Spanish architecture. For a real trip back in time, hop on a calesa, or horse-drawn carriage, and see the area in utterly charming style.

Explore the night markets

Manila’s night markets are a great place to pick up a souvenir. However, much like Munich’s Viktualienmarkt, they also have some of the city’s best food.

Admire the colourful fresh fish straight from the harbour, or tuck into a steaming bowl of noodles or grilled meat from a street food stall. Some markets here even open until the early hours, if you really want to make the most of your trip.
