Best Places to Visit in Asia 2024 kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2SVqId9qcqAb9E

[@levitabacug3377]

Love to visit Manila again. Been here before pandemic 😷 and Manila has converted me for real fun for good reasons.

[@GreatCityAttractions]

Always great content Island Hopper.

[@ChthonicRemains]

I love coming back here almost every year. There's so much development going on and BGC is absolutely stunning.

[@Rendani]

Exactly what I need.

[@comewithmewalking]

Amazing video thank you for sharing

[@serenity4me2day]

Shrimp and eggs look amazing! Nice haircut, I like that style...and more amazing healthy foods. ❤️Love those resort pools🌊

[@jamesdavis8731]

Excellent video! I lived in the Makati-BGC area for about 16 years. Love that area. Much more modern than much of the rest of the Philippines. As for P. Burgos, it is certainly is not everyone's cup of tea (if you have been there you know what I mean) but if you can't have some fun there, you probably can't have fun anywhere. I would highly suggest visiting The Filling Station, one of the most amazing restaurants (visually) I have ever been to.

[@wahoowahoo2341]

Wow...I wanna visit Philippines ❤❤❤ Beautiful Tired of Thailand 😢😢😢 Swiss guy here ❤

[@IslandHopperTV]

Come visit. Go to the provinces.

[@WalkingArchive]

I've always wanted to visit Manila and this video gives me a great idea of all the amazing things to do there! Can't wait to explore the city and try out the local food. Thanks for sharing!

[@mocabe01]

Keep in mind though, much of the video is referring to "Metro Manila" and not just Manila. "Metro Manila" is composed of 16 cities and 1 municipality. "Manila" is just one of those cities. So if you want to go to BGC for example, that is in Taguig (not Manila!). You might need to be clear about this with the airport taxi, otherwise, you might unintentionally end up on the opposite edge of the region.

[@OHANA-Beach-Suites-CDO]

LOVE PHILIPPINES! Great video! Have a great weekend!

You can visit Ayala Museum in Makati, and The National Museum at at capital Manila or Maynila.

[@billhamm3234]

Thank you for posting this video. I spent October 2023 in Davao City. I flew there to meet my lady friend. I had a wonderful time. I was at Manila's airport but never had a chance to see the city. Something caught my eye as I was watching your video. At 6:45 there is a camera shot of a building with a neon sign saying "Bourbon New Orleans ". Since I live in New Orleans, I was curious as to what this building is ? Is it a restaurant or hotel ? Do you know anything about this place ?

[@danielito3766]

Also....American cemetery. National museum if anthropology. Manila zoo. Ocean park. Ayala museum.manila bay.

[@user-zr6mz5iw5w]

Switched off at the baby duck thing!!

[@mocabe01]

Most of us eat it only when it is semi-formed so the meat is still very soft and chewable. The duckling is not recognizable yet, and it's cooked so it won't be moving when you bite it (aww... sorry to disappoint 😏). Also at that point, there are no hard bones yet with just a few hair (for young birds, it's actually called "down").

[@edmhie1]

One thing to not missed as an American...........the "American Memorial and Cemetery" in BGC

[@ugotmalenurse]

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 *This is one of the best Metro Manila travel videos on KZbin, in my opinion*. *Keep in mind the best time to visit the Philippines, weather wise, is from November to about the second week of February when it is relatively cooler*. *March to June is very hot and humid, and from about the second week of June to October is the rainy season*. *Thanks for pointing out whether a particular place is “ritzy” or is seedy*

[@davisurdaneta1426]

The shrimp dish is called "Camaron Rebosado".

[@user-kk7fq8nb7m]

try also to visit the Paco.Park n Cemetery, now a recreational garden n once Manila's municipal cemetery. Built by the Dominicans during the Spanish colonial period. Originally designed to be the final resting place for the Spanish colonial elite. The inner walls of the circular garden still houses the marble crypt markers that bear their family names....inside the park is a small church of St. Pancracius n now has become a popular wedding venue....

[@joyodi3294]

Manilla, I will be in Manali come March 2024

[@thaddeuskent8185]

Thanks for the video. My dad was born and raised here (he's half) and i keep looking into moving here, but I found out he renounced his citizenship, so i dont get the citizenship. Big disappointment.

[@LothoOdy]

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@bill12803]

Great video. Can you give me you opinion on which hotels have the best swimming pools?

[@IslandHopperTV]

Grand Hyatt, Hilton at Resorts World. Manila isn’t like Bangkok with amazing pools. Did you check our hotel channel @islandhoppertvhotels under our Manila Playlist?

[@fritzjcastro]

Finaly your back. Is this recently, currently you are in Manila. Are you going to watch world cup? I wish i could meet the marco polo of the modern time.

[@IslandHopperTV]

LOL Marco Polo. Yes I was there in Philippines for 40 days. Got to go to many islands this time around.

LOUWAN GAMING FROM PHILIPPINES

[@salvadorsepulveda6415]

I wonder when eating balut , is there crunchy bones like sardines? 👍 🙏

[@IslandHopperTV]

Good question man. Still too timid to try it.

[@mocabe01]

Most of us do not eat "balut" at the stage when it's about ready to hatch because at that point, it's already inconvenient to eat due to hard bones, beak and hair/feather. The bone is like chicken wing bones but smaller. It's noticeably softer, but is still hard and maybe cannot eat it anymore otherwise you might crack your teeth. We prefer to have it only semi formed so everything is still soft and chewable. You can request the vendor for that type. Best eaten with some salt.

[@ReadySetGo113]

The oldest China town is in China. :):)

[@IslandHopperTV]

Yes you are right about that.

[@jetscreamer1]

There is no Chinese in China. What drugs are you doing?

[@mocabe01]

There is a difference between "Manila" and "Metro Manila". "Metro Manila" is the correct location for this video. The exception is Taal in Batangas which is in a totally different region. "Metro Manila" is the old but still popular name of the National Capital Region (NCR). It is composed of 16 cities and 1 municipality. "Manila" is just one of those 16 cities. The other locations featured here are in different cities (e.g. BGC is in Taguig, Poblacion is in Makati, etc,). 10:31 I'm pretty sure most of us do not eat "balut" at the stage when it's about ready to hatch because at that point, it's already inconvenient to eat due to hard bones, beak and hair/feather. Most of us prefer to have it only semi formed so everything is still soft and chewable. You can request the vendor for that type. Best eaten with some salt. 10:41 "The baby duck...", "But what is it, quail?", "Quail, yah." 😂 Pls stop calling everything here as "Manila". We do not want foreigners to have misunderstanding with airport taxi telling the driver "Manila" thinking BGC will just be at the next corner or something -- it's not. And they will pay a small fortune as taxi fare because Manila and Taguig are at the opposite ends of the region. Liked!

[@IslandHopperTV]

Okay ✅

[@phoenix5054]

You don't need to be preachy about things foreigners don't know. You wouldn't want that same condescending attitude if ever you visit another country. Also, Manila and Taguig are not on "opposite ends": Valenzuela and Muntinlupa are.

[@mocabe01]

@@mocabe01 Cute. Seems like we have an internet "tough guy" Ben Shapiro wannabe here. Guess what, kid. Niceness and respects goes a long way in the real world, outside of your alt right bubble here. Also, how about your "facts" that Manila and Taguig are on "opposite ends"? Wanna address your BS?

[@mocabe01]

@@phoenix5054 respect? sure... try learning the proper names of the places you go to. don't assume your behavior is OK just because people are too polite to call you out for it. As for your question, clearly not a sharp one, are you? Good day. I will not reply anymore.

@@miguelbalisi9952 what happened they built bathrooms for families

[@miguelbalisi9952]

@@carolynwheaton8547 no. You can count by the fingers, areas (from slums) of the Philippines that does not have bathrooms, even for the slums, there are at least shared bathrooms unlike in India where bathrooms aren't always available in their slums. What happened is, the government built subsidized housing for poor families and there, these poor people were relocated. The vacated places were turned into parks or clean roads.

[@18PregnantAndProud]

is it better than jakarta ?

[@IslandHopperTV]

I would say its very similar. When it comes to Asia Manila and Jakarta are more similar than say Taipei and Manila or Hong Kong and Manila etc etc.
