It remains an active place of worship, a key historical landmark in Intramuros, and a major site for Marian devotion (especially during the December feast of the Immaculate Conception and the Intramuros Grand Marian Procession).

The National Museum of Fine Arts is a must-visit! I love how it preserves so much history while still feeling fresh and inspiring every time. Walking through the grand halls surrounded by masterpieces like Spoliarium always gives me chills. It’s a beautiful, nostalgic spot that reminds me of school trips, but now I appreciate it even more. A timeless gem in the heart of Manila!

Since I was staying in a nearby hotel, I walked here for 3 minutes after registering and had lunch on the way. Although it is a bit old, the mall is probably one of the larger shopping malls in the city. It has a complete range of food and entertainment options, and there are many choices to eat. It is a good place for shopping.

Ayala Triangle gardens feel fresh after the rain today. the garden is so lush..It hosts feral cats, is home to birds frolicking on the wet grass, and a space for excessive, running, reading and just doing nothing.

SCAMMERS! in the entrance of ft Santiago. There will be fake tour guides who look professional. They will be very chill and friendly with laminated tags and cards offering a cheap ride around the sights of intramorus. They told me 1,000 per hour for the tour. At the end they said 8,000 and tried leaving me somewhere. I tracked them down setting up for another scam for other travellers, and acted friendly. They were nervous and I asked if they wanna drink to get their whatsapp which had their contact and picture and name. Took their picture of their name tag.I questioned about the price and they told me 1,000 was for the time but the rest of the 8,000 was for the tour guide, the driver and the gas. I proceeded to the TOURIST police, by the GATE OF FT SANTIAGO and reported them. They made them give me my money back.This is my recommendation if you run into them ignore them. If you are reading after you have been scammed, remain calm. Gather intel and remain friendly. Ask and if they refuse, calmly go to the TOURIST police with the intel and report them. Do not confront them negatively to avoid anything negative against you and remain calm throughout the process.Other than that. It is a very beautiful place and highly recommended it when exploring.
