These are the adjectives that comes into my mind when I hear the word “BINONDO”.

BINONDO is the oldest China-town in the World. It is located in Manila, Philippines.
I’ve been to Binondo before because my Mom wanted to celebrate Chinese New Year and try some delicious Chinese foods. I don’t have a blog then. But I still have some photos Chinese New Year of 2016. 

So…. Why am I back?

My friend from Canada said he will have a vacation here. And I’m thinking where should I bring him to experience culture and good food! 

And BOOM! 

BINONDO is the place to be!
