Manila: City Highlights Day Trip with Fort Santiago Tour

Manila: City Highlights Day Trip with Fort Santiago Tour

Begin your day with a visit to the San Agustin Church, the oldest stone church in the Philippines and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Marvel at its intricately carved doors, Baroque architecture, and the stunning ceiling frescoes. Explore the adjacent museum, which houses religious artifacts, centuries-old paintings, and historical treasures that tell the story of the Spanish colonial era. Next, walk to the nearby Manila Cathedral, an iconic symbol of resilience, having been rebuilt multiple times since its founding in 1571. Admire the grand Romanesque façade and the beautiful stained glass windows. Inside, the cathedral's peaceful atmosphere provides a moment of reflection amidst the hustle and bustle of the city. Continue your journey to Fort Santiago, a historic fortress within the walls of Intramuros. Walk through the old stone gate and explore the dungeons, gardens, and the Rizal Shrine, dedicated to Dr. José Rizal, who was imprisoned here before his execution. The fort’s grounds offer a mix of solemn history and scenic views of the Pasig River. After a morning of exploration, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant within Intramuros or nearby. Savor traditional Filipino dishes such as kare-kare, pancit, and halo-halo for dessert. The warm, flavorful cuisine is a perfect complement to the historical richness of your surroundings. After lunch, head to Rizal Park (Luneta), one of the largest urban parks in Asia. Here, you can visit the Rizal Monument, a symbol of Filipino pride and nationalism. Take a leisurely stroll through the landscaped gardens, passing by ornamental fountains, statues of national heroes, and various historical markers. Next, dive into the country’s art and history at the National Museum of the Philippines. Visit the National Museum of Fine Arts, where you can view works by famous Filipino artists, including the iconic “Spoliarium” by Juan Luna. Continue to the National Museum of Anthropology, which showcases the rich cultural heritage and ancient artifacts from the archipelago. End your day with a visit to the SM Mall of Asia, one of the largest shopping malls in Asia. Here, you can indulge in some retail therapy, explore the many shops, or relax at a café with views of Manila Bay. The mall also offers a variety of entertainment options, including an ice skating rink, cinema, and amusement park rides, making it a perfect way to unwind after a day of cultural immersion.
