manila by foot

how well do you know manila? they say the best way to know a place is to go through it by foot. okay, the manila breeze may not exactly be good for your lungs, but if you want to really know manila, there's no other way. i know my hubby would be happy to know there are already walking tours being offered nowadays. he'd no longer have to go through escolta, quiapo, cubao, or bangkal, makati alone. and besides, i'm not exactly sure i'm qualified to play tourguide in manila, being a promdi myself and having nearly flunked philippine history. for the measly price of 400 to 500 pesos of per adult, we can have the time-featured carlos celdran for a tourguide instead. pretty good deal, i think.
