Manila Quiapo

Quiapo can be a daunting place to visit. But with proper guidance through its dizzying streets, there's a lot to like in this Old Town of Manila. There's wonderful chaos and hidden gems to find. You just have to know where to look. This route brings you back in time, to the turn of the century, when Hidalgo Street was called Calle San Sebastian, known as the most beautiful street in all of Manila and Quiapo was a cosmopolitan neighbourhood with grand homes and even grander churches for the business elite and high society intellectuals. The characteristic wooden houses and old-school favourite shops and cafes are a reminder of its rich heritage; a testimony to the many different cultures that have made Quiapo their home over the years.
