NOT WHAT WE EXPECTED To See In Manila - The Walled City, Intramuros, Rizal Park | Philippines 🇵🇭

[@MarieLou3M]

You're so kind giving 1000 pesos to the old man for their rent, thanks to your generosity. Glad you tried the famous hot pandesal, we often eat that with coffee for breakfast. I noticed you're missing a lot of subscribers by not going to their phones showing your KZbin channel, for those asking for your channel especially the young ones.

The film project that the students were filming was Noli Me Tángere (Touch Me Not) which is the most famous novel of Dr. Jose Rizal during the Spanish Colonization to expose the social ills of his time and critique Philippine society. Every August, all schools celebrate Buwan ng Wika (National Language Month) that includes the culture, Philippine history and traditions. Every schools in the Philippines does filming as projects and they also just celebrate it with dancing the traditional dance, singing, and more. :))

[@makersmakestuff3675]

Please consider going to Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar. It's in Bataan, a few hours from Manila. You won't regret it. It's like going back in time. Not a lot of foreign vloggers have covered it, but you will love it there. Stay at least one night.

[@AnthonyJover]

Welcome to the Philippines! A lot of mosquitos during rainy days. Keep safe and enjoy!

[@charmsmanz6204]

Thank you for your patience with the locals.

[@RjThermo]

Many thanks to you Mado and Glen for going over to the Philippines and exploring our cities and suburbs. I hope you go home back to Ireland with great memories of our country. By the way, "Ingat po" or "mag-iingat po kayo" is the right way to say it. Enjoy your vacation... I subscribed from Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia.

[@allanolandria2011]

Hi Glen and Mado, looks like you're enjoying your stay in the Philippines but i think you missed to visit the monument of Jose Rizal at the Rizal Park and that's the mean attraction there. it also called Luneta. You should come back as you still have heaps od places to explore. Visit Cebu City, the queen city of the South but don't forget to re visit New Zealand, i'd love to see you both here in person. Enjoy ❤

[@Lechaim11]

I ran a company in Manilla in the eighties. I now live in Brisbane, which is one of the best places to live in this world of ours. I must admit, though, that my time in the Phillipines was a joyous one. The country is well worth a visit, and the people are among the friendliest I have encountered. It always surprises me that more people do not have the Phillipines on their must visit list!

[@richardcaldwell9160]

Another fun day with G & M. I think, Glen you have greeted almost a third of Manila's 24 million population in just 40 minutes Stay Well x

[@froiacifares4655]

You should try Philippines Mango... Im sure you would love it

[@bert-bb3cm]

Back in the early 80’s, fish balls was 15 centavos each. The most we pay was 2 pesos each stick with 7-8 balls on a skewer.🤔 Intramuros has gone a long ways. It was trashy back in the days but I happy to see the huge changes in the area. I like your video of this part of Manila. Thank you for you guys experience in beautiful Manila, Philippines 🇵🇭. Stay vigilant and always watch your surroundings. Ingat pare!🫶🏽🫰🏽🤙🏽😎

[@Manny.namnam]

Welcome to the Philippines! Hope you enjoy your stay. Try some street foods, go to Dampa to buy some fresh seafood and have a nearby restaurant cook them for you. The best part about being in the Philippines is the fresh fruits and seafood. Try the Philippine Mango, it taste very good and sweet unlike others. Be careful when crossing the streets.

[@beautifullycreatable]

There are a lot of skycrapers in BGC and Makati city area. Enjoy ❤. Look for the "Off" lotion if you would need a lotion so you won't be attacked by mosquitoes.

[@richardnuevo]

Try to go to Vigan in the northern part of the Philippines and its like in Europe

[@MsVroege]

The LGU should remove these annoying tour guides and doesn't understand the word "NO" ...They're so annoyingly persistent...

[@angelotimonera7967]

Hi Glen and Mado, you have not seen much of the country and if you have more time maybe try visit the Northern part of Luzon where yo may find lush green forests, mountains, rivers, waterfalls and more in Bagiuo mountain province but you are now both in the rainy stormy season and I guess it would be difficult to have it in your itinerary. Anyway still enjoy your adventure.

[@TheHolapino]

omg the driver that said "lamborghini" is the one that took me around intramuros.

I hope the next video is the MOA-Mall of Asia❤

[@GlenAndMado]

not quite! will be soon though :)

[@Jammy7126]

You guys should visit Vigan city, It is the only city here in the Philippines that doesn't get destroyed by the WW2 and it's well preserved.

[@proudajero1709]

You have to check the weather before going out and apply some mosquito repellent lotions so things will be easy in you when you do your next activities. It's a rainy season already. You should have come to the Philippines in September or before the year ends to experience the Christmas and experience more of the Filipino Hospitality well infact therell be more activities going to happen as the 'Ber' months enter.

[@emmans05]

"Noli Me Tangere" or Touch Me Not in English, was a nobel authored by Filipino Dr José Rizal, a Philippine hero. The novel portrays the social, political, and religious issues in the Philippines during Spanish colonization. "Noli Me Tangere" is a powerful and critical reflection on colonialism, social injustice, and the need for reform. It served as an awakening for the Filipino people and remains a vital symbol of resistance against oppression.The park was also named after him. Dr. José Rizal fought against the Spanish colonial rule in the Philippines primarily through his writings, education, and peaceful reform efforts rather than armed struggle. As a nationalist and a reformist, he used his intellect and his influence to awaken the Filipino people's sense of nationalism and to expose the injustices committed by the Spanish authorities and friars.

[@j1007ch]

Those “tuktuks” are just called tricycles or trikes in the Philippines. Also, there is no risk of yellow fever there. You were probably talking about Dengue. But Dengue comes and goes. If there is an outbreak of dengue, it’s usually centered in a locality, and there will be heightened alert and announcements will be everywhere. Just wear your mosquito repellents and loosen up. No need to be super wary.

[@itsjustme123-w8x]

Robinsons i actually 3rd tier mall.

[@dodiedalit]

Glen and Mado, go Visit also Bataan . Lots of beach beautiful places greenest as what you want to see it, the popular Tallest Cross with elevator Mount.Samat heading to Bagac,Bataan. The surroundings are very nice and at the top where you can see the beauty of the city its overlooking View of Bataan!. ❤

[@joshuaadao4087]

I love going for a run every morning in Rizal Park.

[@RedWhiteBlue.]

Got to forgive those who probably ignored your how-are-you's. They're not trying to rude but Filipinos are not really accustomed to small talks 😉 They'll give you smiles more than respond to how-are-you's. Another thing in the Philippines or probably in SE Asia in general, they're not accustomed too to holding doors. Hope you won't take offense if these happen.

[@KaidePH]

You missed going inside the fort Santiago, you can find their the old canons and ammunitions, the prison cell of national hero Jose Rizal, the barracks of Spanish armies and Japanese, the dungeons made for American prisoners and many more. That's the main attraction inside intramuros.

[@venza907]

These Tuk Tuk (Thailand) in Philippines they are called Tricycles or Pedicab

[@GlenAndMado]

Haha Insane that I never learned that after our full trip there lol

[@riomutuc4904]

you guys -- missed San Agustin church -oldest church in Manila -only structure that survived the destruction of Intramuros during WWII. The museum inside has amazing church artifacts. Never miss a church in the Philippines, they are our treasures --some, the old ones all over Philippines, are part of UNESCO World Heritage List

[@odemarkluidelacruz4259]

In PH when in come to shopping for fruits, meats, seafoods and other fresh produce local wet markets are the best option coz you can bargain on items for a lower price unlike buying produce on major and high-end supermarkets franchise in malls their prices are fixed and items cost higher than the local markets

While you biking before the building that reconstrust is the old central bank building and the adjacent is the bureau if immigration building

[@jaimedominicpanelo7246]

Go to Vigan City in Ilocos Sur or Las Casa de Acuzar in Bagac, Bataan province for the more grandeur Spanish Colonial remnants.

That's correct, you need to make some bargains with the locals about the prices .... smart moves hahaha

Filipinos are not usually asked kumusta ka by strangers, that is the reason why they does not response after being asked.

[@johnchrysostom330]

I noticed an emphasis at @5:32 "How are you today", then "Kumusta ka" twice. No response. LOL. If any of the managers of this establishments watching, please train your staff. A little anecdote. I was a technical support for wireless routers in a BPO when the woman on the other line mentioned, "I just came back from surgery". I didn't respond and went ahead with my troubleshooting. The call was caught by the Quality Analyst and I got a "red flag" for that instance me not responding. The report said, I should have replied, "I hope you're doing fine now" or "Get well" or anything of that sort before continuing with my troubleshooting. BTW. "Kumusta" ka is a Filipinism of Spanish "Como esta".

Don't forget to visit the National Museum of Anthropology and Ocean Park. All near to Luneta Park. Mall of Asia is also few minutes away from the place. Binondo is also an ideal place for food tripping and try visiting at night Pasig River Esplanade.
