Fun Things to Do in Manila
Makati
The business district of Makati is where some of the top international hotels are located. Manila is actually quite safe and Makati in particular feels very secure. There are guards who keep an eye on what’s happening and the area has a relaxed atmosphere. One of the best Makati attractions is the Ayala Museum. Also located in Greenbelt, this exhibition space houses the Filipinas Heritage Library and focuses on the craftworks of the Philippines. Another popular cultural attraction is Yuchengco Museum at the RBC Plaza which exhibits contemporary and historic fine art. One of the top things to do in Makati is to shop at Greenbelt Mall, located on Legazpi Street, with its huge selection of designer stores. There’s a pleasant park with koi carp ponds and a Catholic chapel.
Get your coffee fix at Single Origin. This local specialty coffee chain has several branches in Manila but the one in Makati has a great location in Greenbelt Mall. You can sit outdoors and admire the vegetation or in the comfy air-conditioned interior. They have a huge selection of coffees and also have a fine line in cakes...
