Venice in Manila
Venice in Manila
There actually is a little Venice in Manila, the Philippines.
Ok, I'll admit, it's not the real Venice, lol.
But the effort they made to make a beautiful little place between the huge skyscrapers in the overcrowded city of is admirable.
It's good for a day visit, then you have really seen it. And ofcourse it is a good time to sit in a gondola. When we were in the real Venice we didn't have the time during our day visit, so this was a good oppurtunity to do the romantic thing in the gondola.
The stores you find here are, besides some famous Philippine restaurants, the usual ones we find in Europe of America. And the prices are also almost the same. When the people of the Philippines make an effort to build a touristical place or famous resort, don't expect Filipino prices.
