Metro Manila is a large, vibrant and cosmopolitan city with fascinating sights and charming people. The capital of the only Catholic country in Asia, Manila’s culture is as intriguing as its history. Spanish, American, Chinese and Malay influences are all evident in this city of 11 million people.
Cebu City is the capital of the province of Cebu in the Philippines and is the second most important metropolitan center in the country. The city lies on the eastern shore of the island of Cebu and is the oldest city in the country, even older than the nation's capital, Manila.
Davao City is one of the most important cities on the island of Mindanao, and is the largest city in the Philippines in area. Its international airport and seaport is one of the busiest cargo hubs in the southern Philippines. Davao City is also one of several cities in the Philippines that are independent of any province.
Measuring just 7.5km long and 2km wide, Boracay is possibly one of the last best-kept secrets for international travellers and vacationers. It has consistently been on numerous top ten best beaches lists for decades but, with the Philippines being far from the usual Asian vacation hubs, many tourists balk at the further travel needed to reach Boracay. For this reason Boracay has largely avoided the "tourist trap" feel that plagues many other Asian tourist destinations.
Baguio City is a 1st class city in northern Luzon in the Philippines. Baguio City was established by the Americans in 1909 and declared by the Philippine Assembly as the Summer Capital of the Philippines. Baguio City occupies 49 square kilometers of hilly land on a plateau about 1,500 meters high in the southwestern portion of the Cordillera Central mountain range in northern Luzon.
