Joining heritage walks is one of the best ways to discover any city on foot and meet new people. Even if you’re born and raised in Manila and you claim to know every eskinita and kanto there is, you’d be surprised to still discover hidden gems and interesting historical facts. If you’ve made it a point to try new things this 2024, Renacimiento Manila‘s weekend heritage walks can tick that item off your bucket list.
