My vacations have just been started and I wanted to make them memorable. So, I decided a trip to Philippines. This place is famous for its beautiful islands. However, Philippines had faced too much corruption and the city has been hit by various disasters still it attracted a lot of tourist every year due to its this feature. Its capital Manila has a lot of places to visit.
I booked the ticket from Fly Classic Airlines direct to Manila that costs me around 400 pound which was much cheaper than other flights. I was supposed to go to Philippines after a week. Before the day reached, I collected all the needful things, made a phone diary carrying all the important phone numbers and completed the packing of bags. Then the day came to fulfill my dream and my flight took off to Philippines.
After reaching there, I enquired about the cheapest and good hotels that provided all the facilities needed for a visitor and my search was finished within an hour. I took some rest in my hotel room and then went to look around for the famous tourist attractions that were mostly in Manila. Manila contains various beaches that attract every traveler.
I went to saw The National Annex Museum that contains the ancient findings and ancestral pieces, which can allure anyone from its architecture. Then I went for my next sight, which was Maritime Heritage Gallery that had also attracted me too much.
Next, I went to Sudlon National Park that had so many picnic grounds and pools. I enjoyed there for around 2 hours. There are so many beautiful islands that include Dibutonay, Batanes and Horse islands. Out of these, Batanes islands are too much different from the other ones that I liked the most. I didn’t get too much time to look around for the other sights but that did not made me embarrassed, as I had seen all the important places and enjoyed in Philippines too much.
