Manila Events and Entertainment

There are also several gimmick places in Manila. A "gimmick" place, in Filipino parlance, is a place where you dine, drink and party. Among the most popular gimmick places in Manila are Eastwood in Quezon City, Greenbelt and Glorietta in Makati City, Malate in Manila, Metrowalk in Pasig City, and Alabang in Muntinlupa City. All these places have very good restaurants and bars where you can simply dine or drink your favorite liquor.

Historical places in Manila include Fort Santiago, Rizal Park, the National Museum, Quezon Circle, Intramuros, and Corregidor among others.

Manila Sound and its place in Philippine music

The Philippine music scene, at par with any other flourishing music industry in the world, has for its repertoire a diverse array of genres. Homegrown or borrowed, these genres have themselves spawned a number of sub-varieties, and not surprisingly, considering the sheer number of competent musicians in the country and the huge following they enjoy.

If you are the musical type of person, then you should visit Manila's music scene. There is the music museum at Greenhills, in the City of San Juan where the country's most popular music artists perform for music shows--whether they be plays or bands. Several restaurants also give live music. So if you'd like to enjoy live music while dining, you may check out "Chef and Brewer" or "Metrowalk" at the Ortigas Center in Pasig City. If you are into jazz music, you may want to visit the "Captain's Bar" at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel at Makati City.

Watching a Philippine Movie

There's nothing better to do in the weekend or after a long day of work than to chill out, relax and watch a good Philippine movie. The country's cinema scene has evolved considerably over the long decades, and is now one of the most developed in the world. Philippine movies are known all over for their striking originality, humor and human connection. Philippine movies may be considered as a gateway to Philippine culture, with the movie portraying slice-of-life accounts on how life goes on in the Philippine.

Philippine Basketball Association "A League of Their Own"

“Pare, tara, basket tayo!” (C’mon man, let’s play ball!) typical filipino dreaming to join the Philippine Basketball Association. Basketball is like air for most Filipinos. They can’t live without it, or they can but there would always be something missing. In every province, in any city, there’s always some league or group of people where able Filipinos play basketball either for leisure or for competition.
