The Places: Intramuros, Manila
Been There.
Beautiful, Scenic, Historical Walls of Intramuros.
Intramuros is a spanish word meaning “inside the walls”, was built during the Spanish colonization to protect the seat of the it’s government from foreign invasions.
My alma mater Mapua Institute of Technology is inside the walls of Intramuros. So basically I spend 5 years inside the walls. We have it as tambayan, kainan, study hall, date venue (HHWWPSSP) and a lot more. Aside from schools – Mapua, Letran, Lyceum, Manila High, etc, it also houses the famous churches like San Agustin and Manila Cathedral, several museums and the Fort Santiago.

Intramuros is one of the places that I have been longing for since high school, hopefully next year it will be included on our itinerary.
I did a post on Intramuros before. I went on a photowalk date.
It’s “wall” pictures… hehehe! Nice!
I am a pure Filipino but I haven’t been in Intramuros, Manila. ^_^ I only see the place in photos and videos, like this post.
I love visiting the walled city back in the days, parang other era ang dating! would love to visit again!
i’ve been working in intramuros and it always amaze me..
I used to go there always back in colege days. i love the place.one of the best places in Manila and a tourist attraction.
Urggghhh! When i went to intramuros, I didn’t have a cam, never captured a single photo
seeing photos .intramuros stirs my nationalism within me. I am sure you got a good time here
I’ve never been to Intramuros. One of the must-visit-places in the Philippines i think.
nice ! yes, i love intramuros. dyan din ako palagi during my college, my alma mater ( i had that post with the pics of PLM) ^_^
Been to Intramuros once. I was looking for the historical places but I can’t find one. Or am I just expecting some old edifice to say it historical? Gusto ko rin malibot to!
never been to Manila and so I wonder as when would that be. and now i can’t wait any longer after seeing all your pics=)
Ive been to intramuros just once recently.. to attend a pre wedding dinner, at Santa Barbara’s.
This is a nice post!
Nice to find places I could check when I try to visit this place again.
intramuros is very memorable to me, dito ko sinagot ang ex-bf ko now hubby, so dito rin kami kinasal. =)
I want to go back here with my family so I can show them the shrine of Rizal that my stepfather did.
I love going to Intramuros! I always take my foreign friends here. They like walking on the walls hehe
I haven’t been to Intramuros for the past 17 years. I need to get my slipperz visit the place again
soon
Went here back in college to do some Fil-hispanic Architecture Research Work. Also done some field photos as our project in Humanities. But I haven’t fully explored other places inside the walled city.
We have the same Alma Mater!
What I miss is the “wall”, Manang’s fried chicken and porkchop.
have you been to the other “ruins” landmark? like the one where the headquarters of military stood. I bumped into these places last summer when we are doing geocaching.
