I Fell In Love
I loved everything about Manila, even the traffic. I am originally from Clarksdale, Mississippi and was in Manila back in August as part of a mission team from Arkansas.

5 STARS????
Who in the world is posting all of these rave reviews about Manila Bay being worthy of 5 STARS? I have been living in Manila for 6 months now and am located across the road from Manila Bay and am repulsed by the amount of trash that washes up to shore each morning and Heaven forbid you want to "take a stroll" on the baywalk because the smell of sewage is so profound that you need to cover your mouth and nose or the smell will knock your socks off! There are homeless families all over the baywalk and you will be approached by every single one of them for a handout! If you ever expect to see a cop around, you can forget it. They are no where in sight and they are certainly not out "giving tickets" because every single driver in metro Manila is breaking the law while on the road. It's pretty pathetic and pretty dangerous.

Scenic Manila Bay
Used to have a place to walk around right at the bay, there are still restaurants, and live bands at the area but not like when they had Baywalk.

Absolute beauty to behold!!!
God's abundance is reflected in this ambiance of nature. However, when nature calls, facilities for this need detracted from the ambiance and the peaked senses from within. How much pride would Manila proper be if the "comfort room" facilities were modernized just a notch...nothing fancy, maybe even 1970s standards? Is that asking for much? There are so many well educated, and people with financial means, who could make a difference in this matter. May even lead to other things to provide for some employment for God's poor and the less fortunate. I would be one filipino who would be so proud!!! Come on folks (of the world), the Philippines is "the best kept secret" in natural beauty come and visit and help enhance this natural beauty! There I said it.

Pollution and poverty abound!!!
Anyone who thinks this area of Manila is good needs their head checked. Polluted water due to the heavy industrial and sewage wastes that pour into it, along with the hordes of homeless poverty stricken families make it a most unpleasant palce to be.

our first dinner happened here...
This is the place where me and fiancee had our first dinner during our first meeting in person at the seafood resto here called harborview, ambiance is so romantic and very quite sorrounding with a cold breeze blowing,the floating resto plus the different color of lights that sorrounds manila add up to the nice view.You and your lover need to stroll down here after dark,there's places to eat, and walk around afterward like we did.Its a place to relax and just hold the one you love.I miss our moments here..am sure we will be here again cus it's special to us now.
