I've always wanted to visit Chinatown, so when one of my friends agreed to go on a food trip with me there, I immediately planned our Binondo Adventure!

The Chinatown here in Binondo, Manila is the oldest Chinatown in the world. It was established on the year 1594.

We actually started our adventure in Quiapo, but we only went there to buy some stuff. We walked from Quiapo church to Ongpin street. There were three of us on this trip, my friend ate janet, my cousin ate tsen and me. It was all our first time to visit Chinatown and we're all excited.


The Arch of Goodwill at Plaza Santa Cruz welcomed us to our Binondo adventure.

The best thing about this restaurant/inn is the view. With its unique location, on top of a hill, you can enjoy the overlooking view of the town's old fortress and the ocean as well.

Aside from providing its customers with a nice view, good food and accommodation, this establishment also offer a wide  variety of tours where you can explore and discover the hidden beauty and treasures of Taytay.
