Streets squares and districts to visit Manila

This is perhaps the most charming and peaceful place in the entire capital. In the heart of Intramuros, just across from the Church of Saint Augustine, Plaza San Luis is a sort of micro-neighborhood made up of nine houses with colonial-inspired architecture (they were reconstructed in the 1970s), linked together by a network of alleys, patios and covered passages. Today they house museums, restaurants and souvenir stores, and they exude a sweet atmosphere of yesteryear. A must-see.
