Students, professionals, and foreign tourists in Manila have a new place to enjoy good food and discover great finds at the new night market in the historic walled city, Intramuros.
The Wall Intramuros Night Market has recently opened its gate to the public with a free concert featuring pop rock bands.
The night market features more than a hundred stalls, from a wide selection of food concepts to businesses offering locally made products, such as gift items, souvenir items, accessories, apparel, and other bazaar finds.
The concept of combining food stalls and shopping were inspired by the Mongkok Night Market in Hong Kong, the Myeongdong Night Market in Korea, and the Shilin Night Market in Taiwan.
“We are different from the other food parks because The Wall is a combination of good food and a great shopping experience. Foreign tourists, students, and professionals will definitely find a new reason to visit Intramuros. This is also perfect for the whole family!” enthused Denver Chua, owner of The Wall Intramuros Night Market.
Located in the heart of Manila, the historic Intramuros, also called the “Walled City,” was the seat of government and the center of power during the Spanish era. It was also the center of religion and education, which is why at present, the country’s top educational institutions are still inside Intramuros such as Colegio de San Juan de Letran, Lyceum of the Philippines University, Mapua University, and the Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, to name a few.
Aside from the universities, other attractions inside Intramuros are the Manila Cathedral and the San Agustin Church—a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Wall Intramuros Night Market is located at Gen. Luna corner Victoria Street, Intramuros Manila. It is open everyday from 4:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.
