Tourist Guide for a Weekend

June 6, 2015 

My Aunt Vicky, Uncle Jo and cousins Carlo and Monica stayed at Richmonde Hotel in Ortigas here in Manila before they go back to New York, our original plan is to pick them up at Richmonde Hotel. But Carlo said why not ride the train and meet them half way. So they ride the MRT up to Quezon Avenue station. 

Our first stop is at UST- University of Santo Tomas. It is the oldest University in the Philippines. 

    Main Building 





More photos to follow

Then we headed to U.P. Diliman (University of the Philippines) our State University. 

Photos to follow. 

We ate at Pino Restaurant in Malingap street near Maginhawa street. No photos taken because we are so hungry I forgot to take pictures. I highly recommend this resto to you. It is a vegetarian friendly resto but they also have meats!!  The Bagnet Kare-Kare is to die for! 

Then we went to ADMU (Ateneo de Manila University) to check the campus. But I think the church is close we did not try to go in. 

So we proceed to Manila Cathedral to show them the famous Basilica in Manila.


Ever since Manila Cathedral is open to the public after its renovation, wedding bells come and go. 


I cannot take a photo with the whole Cathedral so I've decided to took a photo using Panorama.

Then we took them to San Agustin Church 


We waited till the sunset in Manila Bay. 😊

Our last destination for that day was at Jazz Simple Ambiance Resto Bar. Again, we don't have a photo. We are so hungry to take pictures. Lol! Their food is affordable with Unlimited Rice and Iced Tea but don't expect too much with the food. You may eat outside the resto with an overlooking Manila Bay or inside with aircondition.
