It was some sort of "going down memory lane" for me as I used to spend most of my time here back in college.
Intramuros is the oldest city in Manila. It was built by the Spaniards during the 16th Century. The city government managed to preserve the old structure of Intramuros, at least its walls, that's why it was then called "The Walled City".
Overlooking the walls are different buildings including the clock tower in Manila City Hall and the Club Intramuros Golf Course.
Also located in Intramuros are two of the oldest and most known churches in the Philippines, Manila Cathedral and San Agustin Church.

Wedding venues and gardens are all over Intramuros. Two of which are Casa Real Garden and Baluarte de San Diego.

One of the main attraction here is the Kalesa Ride Tour. A 30 mins ride costs 350 pesos, that's good for 2-3 persons.
And finally, go check out the handicraft stores and art galleries that's located in almost every corner of Intramuros.
