Manila, the capital of the Philippines, is rightfully tagged as the most densely populated city in the Word. Gaining autonomy in 1949 the City of Manila is located on the eastern shores of the Manila Bay with the Pasig river dividing the middle of the city into the north and south.

Manila is a centre of fun for kids and a melting pot of indulgence and culinary adventure for adults. Activities related to the youngest ones in Manila are happening on daily basis (http://manilaforkids.com/events/)

If you are more into the history explore Old Manila, the oldest district and the historic heart, where you can climb over the old ramparts and take a calesa ride (horse and cart) around this Spanish influenced neighbourhood. Nearby, Fort Santiago has a lovely children’s park and fountains for the kids to splash in.

Located in Bonifacio Global City in the heart of Manila’s newest business district, Kidzania is a fun, educational play city where kids can play different roles from fire-fighters, to nurses, to fashion models. They can even get a Masters Degree to earn more kidzos (the play currency) which they can trade or save. It is aimed at kids aged four to fourteen.

Alternatively you can try DreamPlay which is one of the newest arrivals in town from the makers of the movies Madagascar, Shrek and How to tame your Dragon. It’s an indoor interactive paradise for kids.

At DreamPlay the kids can learn to cook gingerbread in Shrek’s Kitchen, animate their own King Fu Panda sketch, watch a 3D short film in the interactive cinema, build and fly their own dragon, build and race toy boats, chill out in the oversized library, play in the Penguins’ airship and run wild in the soft play and the twister slides.
