icons, vestments and other religious articles. Across it is Casa Manila, a
reproduction of a 19th century house equipped with oriental
and european décor, as well as Philippine antique furniture. Then

heart of Manila with its market, pilgrimage church of the Black Nazarene, jeepney terminals
and bazaars. Then, proceed to the Chinese cemetery, the only one of its kind in

the fusion of eastern and Christian religions are very much in evidence. End

district of Makati City.
