As a local I take Intramuros for granted. What a surprise to see the improvements and how pedestrian and tourist friendly it is now. That Batala Cafe seems like a great find indeed.
The only original in Intramuros is the 3km walls and San Agustin church ,The rest was left in Ruins in World War II Feb 1945 when Americans bomabared it to flush out the Japanese stronghold, All you see is Reconstructed started in 1979.
While there in Manila, you should have a trip to 'Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar' in Bataan. It is very beautiful there. They have their own hotel too. Take advantage of it while you're there.
You might want to check out Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar, its a heritage resort in Bataan where you can see old heritage homes being preserved and converted into hotel rooms..
Wow, the view of the Intramuros is like Europe but you're in Manila. Story look alike Pwah pwah their both adorable. Enjoy exploring Intramuros lovely family. Thank you for bringing us along i missed it since the pandemic we're not able to comeback in Intramuros. Yummy vegan food. Enjoy your meal.. Take care everyone. Stay safe..
Other places like this in the Philippines are also Rizal Park (some historical areas), UST (University of Santo Tomas), Vigan, Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar (in Bataan & Quezon City), Zamboanga, Bulacan and old Gapan (the mini tourist area with old style houses). I think Binondo also counts but apart from the churches most buildings there were from the American occupation era. It gives you an idea that back then the Spanish inspired cities in the country all had their specific style depending on region and time period.
your video makes me nostalgic.... both my younger brother and I spent five years of college within those walled city.... another pair of our half siblings later went to college there also....
Nice to know you are all enjoying Manila. Nice to see Pwah Pwah and nice nail color Story, it suits you 🥰 I hope Pwah Pwah will get back her card and her transaction be forfeited

Love all your Tours you take us on! Beautiful scenery, food and drinks! I know one person who lives in Manila. Never take me on online Tours, like you do!
How do you come up with the idea for a video? Do you just film and come up with the story after? I would love to hear your process. Hello from Mexico 🇲🇽🤘

Sacha looks like Andi Eigenmann, a famous Filipina actress/vlogger. I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one who thinks like that 😅. She's also living in Siargao, what a coincidence.
Such a nice video! Could you plz kindly tell us how long does it take if we visit around this area b.c we'rep lanning visit this place in 2 more weeks. Thanks in advance.
The Universities are not the historic resident of Intramuros, they only emerge after WWII when Friars sold ruined propperty, Only Letran college is organic
Intramuros is spanish town before and very beautiful but it was totally devastated during world war2, only few structured is intact,but the ist lady marcos want to restored it in 1980 but sad to said people power came, and the rest is history,
By the way, much of old Manila was destryed during the Battle for Manila in 1945. It was the most devastated city after Warsaw. More than 100,000 civilians died there - at the hands of retreating maniacal Japanese, and by US artillery fire. And yes, the British - your ancestors - breached the walls of Intramuros in the 1760s. They stayed there for three years.😊
Oh my gosh! i never expexted Intramuros now looks like you are Europe. I studied at Colegio de San de Letran in Intramuros before. The oldest College in the Philippines established in 1633 if im not mistsken.
The oldest university would be the University of San Carlos established in the year 1595 followed by University of Sto. Tomas established in the year 1611.
While you're in Manila, you should see Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar. They have the main spot in Bataan, but they have a small version in Quezon City, very close to where you are staying now. Just a Grab away. 😊
Before the Japanese invaded, bombed and destroyed our beautiful country, the Philippines before WWII was the "Pearl of the orient" and the "Paris of the East". It was so European that the national language was Spanish and all the infrastructures were modelled after Spanish infrastructures. ❤
, very true. I graduated at Colegio de San Juan de Letran, the oldest college in the Philippines built by the Spaniards but destroyed in the Battle of Manila at the end of World War 2 in 1945.
I think you skipped the San Agustin Church, the oldest stone church in the Philippines. Not very old by European standards though. It was built in the 1570s-80s.

i think story will enjoy the museum of natural history since she loves animals and nature 😊
The flowers everywhere are so pretty, hanging them upside down is such a pretty aesthetic atmosphere. I love seeing how others live.
Intramuros is stunning

Lovely family... Enjoy the Philippines.. ❤️
Beautiful and historic old Manila 😍😍
Beautiful..enjoy guys everysingle day..
The oldest spanish era the San Agustin Church is located in General Luna St, Manila, Metro Manila built in 1571.
You guys should really go to Vigan to see a more Spanish-colonial setting.
Beautiful family. Story looks so much like her grandma❤
You might want to check out Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar, its a heritage resort in Bataan where you can see old heritage homes being preserved and converted into hotel rooms..
If you have never been to fort santiago, you can also visit, its inside intramuros.

That area is definitely on my list of places to visit in the Philippines. Thanks for sharing.
The old charm states, love the nostalgia of the past
Ive been there before but I was not able to explore too much. Thank you for taking us around Intramuros! Now I know exactly where to have lunch!
It’s a great little place! New I think
That street you walked on is very close to Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila where I graduated as a nurse.
Really BEAUTIFUL... BE SAFE and May GOD BLESS us all... 💖🙏🙏🙏💪👍❤🇵🇭
You can see Many house like that in Las casas filipinas de Acuzar.
The other side is San Augustine church. The first cafe that you have been, the opposite side is the Manila Cathedral.

Our country have a lots of history that I haven't known...a tour of Intramuros is a must and ride in a Kalesa, a horse driven cart.

Have you seen port Santiago park? Close to intramuros
Were you able to get the atm card?
I Miss Poppy very much...
Oh no! that ATM machine fiasco, i imagine, would be really really frustrating. So sorry that it happened on what should have been a perfect day. 😢
It was fine in the end ☺️ The staff were very apologetic and helpful 🙏🏽
That is good to hear! 👏🏼😁
