During the Spanish colonial period, Intramuros was considered Manila itself. The oldest district of Manila, Spaniards built this place during the 16th century. Intarmuros is Spanish word for "within walls", thats why this place was covered with thick wall.
The people here preserved this place in order for visitors to see The Hispanic culture. There are many old Architectures that are still in good shape. Some traffic enforcers also looked like Spanish Soldiers, maybe because they wanted people to know how it feels during the Spanish Colonization.
Bahay Tsinoy is also located here.
