🌍 About Manila

Manila has the oldest Chinatown in the world — Binondo, founded by the Spanish in 1594 and still the best place in the city to eat. Skip the malls and go there for fried dumplings, roast pork, and hopia, the flaky mung-bean pastry; the lunch crowds at the century-old panciterias know what they're doing. The other half of the story is Intramuros, the walled Spanish colonial quarter, where San Agustín Church (finished 1607) was the only building left standing in the district after the 1945 bombing. One honest warning: Manila traffic is genuinely punishing, so plan short hops rather than cross-city dashes. Come January to April for the dry, cooler stretch (24–31°C, almost no rain); June to October brings the monsoon and real typhoon risk, so a cheap wet-season fare can buy you a washout.
