The churches you visited are incredibly beautiful. The interior of the San Agustin Church was fabulous, and the Lady of Perpetual Help Church was stunning with all of the lights on it. I can see why people would be drawn to them. The interiors of these magnificent churches just lend themselves to feeling close to God and to contemplation. i am awed by their beauty.😯
First of all, THANK YOU for the walking tour! You brought back so many memories. From walking past Pacific Star where I used to work, to walking through Bgy 763 in San Andres Bukid, which is just a few minutes from our old house in Rubi St (my mum still lives there). And then Paco! The market is so sosyal na ha. I remember when it was literally a palengke. I even saw you walk past the ukay-ukay I frequented on Dart St (Angel Linao now). And Paco Cemetery is more known as Paco Park, and is more knoen as a wedding venue now. Did you know that Jose Rizal was first buried there, after his execution? The spot is still marked by a small monument, as far as I know. Paco Park is just down the street from my old high school, Manila Science, and that's where we had choir rehearsals back in the 80s. Kind of glad you didn't go to Quiapo because it's insane during Traslacion! Grabe, you walked pa to Binondo! And thanks for correcting that it was the old San Agustin Church. Manila Cathedral is outside Intramuros yata. Btw, the mall you visited was Robinson's Place Manila, not Robinson's Magnolia. 😆 The circular Malate area you noted is called Remedios Circle. It used to be the heart of the bohemian night area. Cafe Remedios and all the original Manila sing-alongs. It's mostly Korean places now. Thank you again, for the tour. Hope you do more in the future. Manila can be a beautiful area to explore, not just sosyal BGC. 😂😂😂
Good morning, and happy Friday, Kulas!! Hi Therine! I caught a fast glimpse of Kumar as he dropped you off at the airport! Im looking forward to watching your trip together! You walked faaaaar Kulas! And at night time too! You're so brave and courageous! I love how so many people of every age stop to welcome you. I'm sure the locals admire you for sharing other islands and places that they only dream of seeing one day. You have some amazing drone shots of Kumar surfing and the many beautiful beaches ⛱️ I loved this video! See you on your next ADVENTURE 😊🎉 Bye Bye 👋 Kumar
Your crosswalk story reminds me of this funny short I watched. You know how in Canada you press the pedestrian cross walk button, in the video there’s a basket with bricks in it that you hold up and carry across with you, to make sure the cars stop😂
Kulas what an amazing long walk, unbelievable 28 km, wow, I met you on the way somewhere before Paco, we had a little chat, I was on my MC. Enjoyed talking to you. Keep it going !!! Oliver
Former batang Paco here.The Paco cemetery was used to be a cemetery for those considered by the Spaniards as "non catholics", or erehe like Jose Rizal where he was buried. Nostalgia striked me when I saw all the places you went. Brings back a lot of good memories. Missing the warmth in Philipines. Hope to be back during spring break vacation! Power on! From NewWest BC
I love watching your walks all over the places I have been... When I was younger I have 5 older guy cousins that I like to hang out with together or separately and they love to bring me along with them every where and we used to walk all over Manila,..we used to live on Taft Avenue near Vito Cruz and the first big mall we have 50 years ago is the Harrison Plaza near the Rizal Coliseum...it burned tho...Paco, Malate, Rizal Park,..Roxas Boulevard...I miss Manila walks...
Manila is a walkable city most especially during cold months (November to February). Nice to see familiar places you walked through. Enjoy your visit to Cebu for the Sinulog. I suggest you hop to Kalibo for the Ati-atihan (the Mother of All Filipino Festivals) on January 18-19 and to Iloilo City for the Dinagyang Festival on January 25-26. You can consider extending your stay in Iloilo for the Jaro Fiesta in Honor of Our Lady of Candles on February 2. Enjoy! Ingat! Amping! Halong!
Youre right Kulas. Walked in the most crowded places around Manila, alone as a woman and nothing bad ever happened to me, thank God! You just need act and think smart, be aware of your surroundings, always alert and be cautious -- thats all an you'll be fine.
👋🏼 Wow! 28 kilometers! Watching from Alaska so of course I have my converter out. 😜 Please continue to be safe. 🏃♂️🚙 Think my dad’s dad is from Cebu. 🤔
At first glance the title made me think - he walked from Davao to Manila!? 😂But, walking 28 kms from Taguig to Baclaran is so laudable.🎉 Enjoy Cebu…I’m a subscriber - a senior - you met in the Mabuhay Lounge with my daughter last November.
A not so trivial historical ltrivia: The Paco Park Cemetery used to be the original (secretly obscured) burial place of Dr. Jose Rizal after he was shot to death by order of Sanish authorities at the Bagumbayan field (now Luneta / Rizal Park. His remains were later dug out from Paco cemetery and officially interred at base of the Rizal Monument in Luneta where he now rests for all time. 🙏🙏🙏
You walked from Makati to Paco Park, Manila City Hall, River Esplanade then to Intramuros that's a long walk. I'm assuming you did 50K-80K steps in a day. 😱
When I first went to BGC in June 1998, my companies site offices were there, The Fort was the only buildings there, the rest was empty space. Had my first night out in the Philippines there. Sad to see it finished. In 2003 I did a radar survey on parts of St. Agustin Church to try and detect if there were any cavities in some of the walls, and also a structural assessment for earthquake mitigation. As a designated World Heritage Site we couldn't do destructive surveys so we used radar. The priest there told us of stories that there was a tunnel built underground to help hide people from the Spanish. We did some radar scans in the area he thought it might be and we found on the scans what indicated a tunnel. Sadly we weren't allowed to do any further investigation. Power On.
@@BecomingFilipino watching from Iloilo my friend. Hope to see you in person Sumday...pangape sa Madge cafe sa lapaz or sa atria and lagaw sa esplanade. 😊😊😊
Of all days u chose the translacion 😄. Ue already in chinatown i thought ull go to masuki. The noodles that u want before whre u walked from bgc to i dunno where only to find out its close. The original one is in chinatown.
The only thing I hate in metro Manila is the lack of sidewalks to walk on or wheel chair access. I am blind I fell off the super narrow sidewalk while I was visiting back in 2011.
Kulas try visiting San Jose Del Monte Bulacan if you have time you will discover new places resorts and sceneries here its beautiful scene of the Sierra Madre mountains not yet fully develope areas
Canadian cities like Edmonton have rentable eScooters, eBikes&Segways. Wonder if u can use the eScooters&eBikes, eSkateboards or segways in BGC. Sidewalks' probably too uneven plus doubt cars will give you right of way. More likely it will get stolen even if there's a geolocation limitations to it.
It isn't about trusting everyone... but just respecting there is a lot more good than people doing bad things. Just be aware, and adapt when necessary.

Wow you covered a lot of grounds Kulas. Never been to Baclaran church. It is a beautiful church. Thanks for showing us Metro Manila Kulas.
Baclaran was really beautiful amongst everything

Kulas, I hope you visit around pasig city, like the Cathedral,museum,city hall ,plaza,Bridgetown,Arcovia..

You just need act and think smart, be aware of your surroundings, always alert and be cautious -- thats all an you'll be fine.
Back to the grind….. Cheers from SAN FRANCISCO, CA.
Life continues... one day at a time. Big festival week coming up though!
Yummy pho, I love Vietnamese foods as well❤Nice walking around Manila 😊Thank you for sharing & be safe 🩵🇨🇦😊
It was great being in the same viet cafe with you yesterday! We appreciate your cordiality! Come to Bacolod, Kulas :-)
Hi po Sir happy new year im always watching your vlog your everyday vlog and no skipping ads .. ❤ be safe always po and therine
Manila City is a very underrated city to walk around. The sidewalks are quite spacious, trees around, cool place and there are beautiful parks.
I don’t get that impression
Intramuros reminds of Bourbon Street in New Orleans

truth is.... I'm also a WALK FAN❤...
1. It clears our minds
2. New ideas pop up
3. of course.... physical welllbeing
You walked from Makati to Paco Park, Manila City Hall, River Esplanade then to Intramuros that's a long walk. I'm assuming you did 50K-80K steps in a day. 😱
37500 🤙
@@BecomingFilipino No way Kulas! That's impressive! My feet would be sore after that walk.
ur doing great brad, don worry
Hi Kulas, he was selling massager to help with aches and pains. They were the things looped around his elbow.
beautiful episode.
I bet you’re leaving Cateel with a heavy heart. Leaving the tranquility of paradise to the chaos of a busy city!
It's all good. I enjoy all the different vibes
Mao na diha kulas 😊🤙
I was in BGC Couple days ago at McKinley Road.at Americans military Cemetery at Venice Grand Canal before Christmas my friend
my idol and inspiration!
Really? Canadian in hiding
I was about to correct you about San Agustin. But you said it after. Thats where I got married in 2002.
❤❤❤salamat Kyle mora pud kog nakauli❤
I also enjoy walking around metro manila. Power on Kulas!

That's a lot of walking Kulas..power on!
Hope we can run into each other somewhere like to meet you
You have a very good youtube channel my friend
Imagine if Philippines have a better system, no corruption, and people united. It will be the definition of a paradise
First again!!!😊
Ninja moves!

Paco Park thats near my old high school, Manila Science High School. Already new building courtesy of Isko.
Kulas how come I can hear the roasters? What time is this that you are already on the road? Good luck to your walking day!
Kulas i hope one day you can tour UP Diliman and feature it.
Sana maka-punta sya sa UP Diliman
Thanks!
beautiful church
That cemetery is also most haunted and active in manila. Thats why they close it after sunset
Are you going for the Ati Atihan festival in Kalibo or Dinagyang in Iloilo? We will be there participating 😁
I am yes 🤙
@BecomingFilipino hope to see you there. I'm a subscriber and been wanting to meet you
Hi Kulas, I think the guy with the basket is selling some kind of massage oil.
Of all days u chose the translacion 😄. Ue already in chinatown i thought ull go to masuki. The noodles that u want before whre u walked from bgc to i dunno where only to find out its close. The original one is in chinatown.
Hataw sa Trip...😅😂🤣
I hope you can visit UP Diliman
Jan 26 is Dinagyang in Iloilo.
The only thing I hate in metro Manila is the lack of sidewalks to walk on or wheel chair access. I am blind I fell off the super narrow sidewalk while I was visiting back in 2011.
Other than that everything I cool in the Philippines.
Good job ldol kulas
Ingats
❤
How much are the houses there in bgc
Back to work to Manila..If you are a bit stressful ? Then back to Cateel to re-set/refresh your mind.What a very nice life that i wanted to..
Easy $ is nice and avoiding Canadian taxes - otherwise same old…..
thats a long walk u made..i wonder how long it would take if you drove there in the traffic 🤔
Possibly longer? haha
If thats january 9, it blacl nazareth thats why have a signal jammer.
You made an exhihirating walk
Thank you, Kulas for bringing us to the Redemptorist Church in your walking tour today. Keep safe always!

Well, walking is more fun, healthier, and give much more time to appreciate people and places where you pass by.
I think they closed the Esplanade as precaution so they can control the Traslacion crowd and they wont hang out there.
legend knows brod. haplas , hahahaha...
Hello Kulas and Therine, the most beautiful and lovely couple, always watching from North Carolina USA 🇺🇸 ❤

It's so polluted in Manila. I've just been there last year. I was coughing a bit towards the end of my vacation there. I suggest you wear a mask.
Kulas just don't trust everyone and be careful wherever you go. Because there's a says there's a snake anywhere we go.❤
It isn't about trusting everyone... but just respecting there is a lot more good than people doing bad things. Just be aware, and adapt when necessary.
Grabe trash sa estero😮
oh wow u can speak tagalog bahala na
Clearly Manila is not your gig -

We like cateel view kulas❤
Don't say bahala na..
