It was a fine Saturday when we decided to take a short
trip in Intramuros to take some pictures of some
historical stuff inside the place.
Intramuros or the Walled City is one of the old cities
in Manila, the capital of the Philippines. The Latin word Intramuros literally means “within the walls”.

Fort Bonifacio or Fuerza
de Santiago in Spanish and Moog ng Santiago in Tagalog is situated in
Intramuros, one of the historical places in Manila. It was named to the patron
saint of Spain named Saint James the Great (Santiago in Spanish).It was
first built by Miguel López de Legazpi, a Spanish conquistador, for the new
established city of Manila in the Philippines.
