Wow! Really made it touring in the city of Manila without hesitation I admire you for that. Long ago Manila noted for criminality but now its different people change .Pilipinos very welcoming to different foreigner regardless of the color of your skin. Just enjoy yourself of warm welcoming of the Pinoys.

Do you recommend the hotel you stayed at in Manila? If so, what was the name and how much USD per night? Was Three Sisters worth the long walk or no different than typical carinderia?
@culturecruise Жыл бұрын
Hello! We were staying at a friend's private accommodation, so unfortunately I don't have a price for you. However, it was located in Mandaluyong near the Shangri-la Mall which was a nice neighborhood. I don't have lot of experience with carinderias, but Three Sisters was very tasty and worth a little walk if you have the time.
