This is the historical capitol of the
Philippine Islands. The larger area is known as Metro Manila, or the capitol region. The city was badly damaged during it's recapture from the Japanese
during the second world war, but some important historical landmarks remain.
Manila is known for Jeepneys and light rail,
as well as heavy traffic, shanties, and pollution.
It is on Manila Bay, with a port on Roxas Avenue,
and a high-rise business district in
Makati
(video).
I visited Makati often, as well as Tatalon in Quezon City, Tondo, Divisoria, Quiapo, and Edsa.
