One day City Walk in Manila, Spanish Royal City and Manila Cathedral

Originally built by the Spanish to rule the Philippines, it is known as the "city in the city" and is the oldest city in Manila. The walls around the castle, the official residences and churches in the city exude a Spanish atmosphere and retain the architectural features of the time. Riding an ancient carriage through the streets, it seems as if time has gone back, and you can visit the 400-year-old old city of Manila.

Attractions:
Manila Roman Plaza: The center of the royal city, once a bullfighting arena

Manila Cathedral: The main building of the Catholic Archdiocese of Manila. The original church was built in 1581. In the following years, the church was constantly damaged and rebuilt due to typhoons, earthquakes, and the flames of war. The current church is the result of the sixth construction.

St. Agustin Church was built in 1571. The original building was built with bamboo, coconut leaves and mud. It was destroyed by fire and rebuilt in 1599 as a stone building. It is the oldest stone church in the Philippines. It survived five earthquakes and two world wars and was considered a miracle by many people.

Fort Santiago was built in 1571 and was completed by Filipino workers 150 years later. Fort Santiago is one of the oldest fortifications in the royal city. After Spain ruled the Philippines, the castle became the main defense for the Spanish against potential invaders. This ancient imperial city was a fortress for the Spanish to resist foreign enemies, so you can see the city walls and forts facing the sea in the city, as well as many deep water dungeons, which were used to imprison civilians and guerrillas during World War II.
