Travel to Philippines: Manila: Intramuros: Photo 1
The most intact elements of the old city are its walls, fringed by an 18-hole golf course run by the Club Intramuros. The pond is not mere landscaping: it's one of several ponds remaining from the Spanish moat, which was complete with watergates into the city and which lasted until a few years after the American arrival in 1898. The golf course followed in 1907, sooner than you might have guessed.
