Area full of history, Intramuros is historically the most interesting part of the vast city of Manila and basically is the old city centre. There is still quite a lot to see in this unique part of the Philippine capital - the only such Spanish colonial stronghold in Asia.
Nowadays, Manila is an enormous city, or rather, a collection of cities, with one of the highest populations in Asia. It can look modern, chaotic, and intimidating. At the core, however, lies a quiet corner, the original seed out of which this metropole grew: Intramuros. After the Spanish conquered the previous settlement on the Pasig River, they constructed a fortress and an adjacent walled city in the 1570s, when Manila was selected to be the capital of the new colony of the Philippines. After that, Manila was the focus of many attacks by pirates, colonial powers, and occupied by foreign forces like the Americans and the Japanese. On top of attacks and destruction by human hands, the city has also been threatened and in several occasions destroyed by natural forces like typhoons, fire, and earthquakes.
