Introducing Manila

Manila is a relaxing and enjoyable place where you can bask in the tropical sun, the beaches, and the people. The warm climate has become increasingly appealing to people and this continues to be a popular tourist destination as a result.

The best time to travel to Manila depends on a variety of factors. First of all, the climate receives a great deal of rain during the typhoon season from June to October. The best time to travel if you want to keep that in mind is from November to April. Another thing to consider would be the festivals and holidays that occur in this important Philippine city. Like Europe, Easter and Christmas are important holidays. On the 9th of January the island celebrates the "Feast of the Black Nazarine" (Crosto Negro). Moreover, there are many hundreds of festivals for the patron saints on the islands as well.
