Welcome to chinatown...I know you've seen this arch a thousand times already but it would be remiss of me not to post this... and its guardian.
The ongpin street... the place to find authentic chinese cuisine, medicine, and of course gold jewelries!
join me as i rediscover the beauty of manila through one photo a day
Please note that i am not a professional photographer. To those who are curious the camera i'm using is Canon Powershot A520.
UPDATE: a very kind soul gave me an ultra nice and spanking new Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS, last October 2008 which i have been using non-stop since then... Thanks again to the one and only Reyna Elena
UPDATE2: last 2009 i finally got myself a DSLR - Canon Rebel Xsi (Canon 450D) to be exact, and have been alternately using it with the PS from REynz
COPYRIGHT. i cant stop anyone from copying my photos, but if you are going to post it or use it in your blog or website please do link this blog or an attribution will do. thanks

Ah, but I haven't seen the arch before! I've just found your blog and am loving this colorful introduction to Manila.
Well, about Manila it's the first time I seee this arch and I like it !!! --- Thank you Pusa about the Kalesa's video. I really enjoyed to listen that song and I saved the video into favorites.
One of my favorite parts of Manila. When I was kid, my father would take me with him to his office on Saturdays in which he worked only until noon. We'd always eat in Chinatown, and afterwards catch a movie in Avenida.
