🇵🇭 VISITING BGC IN MANILA | IS IT THE BEST CITY IN THE PHILIPPINES?
We made a bit of a mistake on our last trip to Manila, we mistook our adventure round McKinley Hill as a trip to BGC, and our subscribers pointed out they are actually completely different places, so one our way back down from the North of Luzon, we decided to put this right and spend a day in the REAL BGC! The real question is, what did we think of BGC, and is it the best city/district we have visited in Manila? Watch this to find out!

You should visit the Ayala Museum in Makati for a small intro to Philippine history through a few dozen dioramas. Most vloggers skip it. But it's a lovely place to situate yourself.
Try going to The Dessert Museum beside mall of Asia. It's very nice there plus free desserts inside to eat.

Glad you enjoyed BGC, the Mind Museum, and your stay at the hotel guys. And glad you were out of Luzon when the typhoon hit. :) Oh, happy birthday Louie! :) Well, belated now hehe. Anyway I'm sure some of your followers have already told you about British vlogger couple George and Lucy of Juicy Vlogs (who lived here for about 3 yrs) and is now back at their condo unit in BGC with their baby Koda. Would be great if you guys could meet them if/when you head back to Manila. You know, they've been to so many places here before. Though there's still a lot more for them to visit and do here. :) Anyway, excited to see your Palawan vlogs. Cheers! 🌊🐟🏖
