When I was in Korea, I met a lot of travelers planning to visit the Philippines. Most of the time, I recommend the places outside Manila, like Boracay, Cebu, Bohol, and Palawan. In the past months, I’ve been to Albay<\/a>, Bataan<\/a>, Laguna<\/a>, and Batangas<\/a>. Exploring the nearby provinces made me appreciate the natural resources of the Philippines. To be honest, I haven’t explored Manila until now. This time, I was educated about the history of the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s my itinerary:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

1. Rizal Park<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s named after Dr. Jose Rizal, the national hero of the Philippines. He was an ophthalmologist, sculptor, painter, educator,\u00a0farmer, historian, playwright and\u00a0journalist.\u00a0In addition, He used his pen to criticize the Spaniards. He was shot in charges of treason in Luneta Field which is now part of the Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has three main buildings: The National Museum of Anthropology, the National Art Gallery, and the National Museum of Natural History.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
