Paradise in the distance Manila
In the island country of the Philippines, you can swim everywhere, with Boracay being the most touristic and popular. The sunrise and sunset here offer exquisite views. The year-round temperature is around 30 degrees during the day and 24 degrees at night.
Manila is located in the Philippines, an island country and is the capital of the country. There are regular flights from our country to here. A plane journey of approximately 11 hours awaits you. At the terminal, which is not very large at the end of the landing, customs and other procedures are carried out extremely quickly, while the extremely helpful attitudes of the people in charge will immediately attract your attention. Currently, the documents that need to be filled 72 hours before arriving in the country can be filled from the relevant application link. As a result of the information to be filled in here, the confirmation barcode sent to your e-mail will allow you to pass without waiting anywhere. There is no visa process applied to the citizens of our country and you can easily travel here.
If you have not already provided any transfer connection from Manila International Airport to your accommodation, a taxi may be the most convenient way for you. Taxis, which are in extremely high use here, serve at extremely cheap prices. Price application according to taxi colors is also available here. Yellow colored taxis are the most affordable. White and then black ones provide transportation services at higher prices. Depending on the business times in the city, you may encounter heavy traffic from time to time. There is no rail system available. Traffic flows on the right as we are used to, and renting a car is also waiting for you as a choice depending on the duration of your stay.
Seafood and rice can be consumed from breakfast in the morning here, where you can come across most of the world cuisines. You can come across all kinds of seafood and all kinds of cooking at every point of the city, even in street vendors. In general, food and drinks are cheaper than in our country. To give you an idea, noddle-soup (soup), which is very popular here, is around 3 dollars. I can easily recommend the soups made from chicken broth, which are extremely filling and delicious.
You can find familiar hamburgers as a menu here for about 3-4 dollars. The average price of a pizza is around 6 dollars depending on the place. Prices may vary according to the level of elegance of the places. If you want, you can buy raw seafood and have it cooked in the way you want. There is no extra charge for this.
Being an island country and due to its population, sea filling activities to produce new land areas continue intensively in every region of the city and the country. However, the compulsory measures to be taken for the health and safety of the workers and their strict implementation is a very striking factor. However, the security measures taken at the entrance to hotels and restaurants, including shopping malls, and the density of security personnel will immediately attract your attention. Although the measures including the search of your luggage by dogs at the hotel entrances show that there is a serious threat, you can have a comfortable holiday in Manila, which is an extremely safe and peaceful place in general. The colorful nightlife will impress you immediately. Especially the city center, which is similar to Taksim, is very colorful and sparkling. Massage parlors and spa centers can be found almost everywhere.
Most of the people who come here on vacation use Boracay Island to swim in the sea. In the Philippines, which is an island country, you can swim everywhere, but the island in question is the most touristic and popular one. The sunrise and sunset here offer exquisite views. The year-round temperature is around 30 degrees during the day and 24 degrees at night. The only difference is between May and September when the rain makes itself felt. Due to the monsoon climate, this period is characterized by serious rainfall. October to April is the best time for me to visit these places. Cebu Island is also waiting for you as another option. Some of the flights from our country to this region are operated as connecting flights to Cebu.
Depending on the duration of your trip here, the Taal Volcano, which has a unique natural view, and a boat ride on the lake will leave you unforgettable moments. I highly recommend hiking or biking to explore the city to the fullest. In this way, you will be able to come across many small details and take beautiful photo frames. Especially the vendors and stalls in the alleyways where you can find all kinds of street food are extremely colorful. I wish you a pleasant trip.
