Paco Park is a circular oasis in the heart of Manila, with a history as solemn as it is fascinating. Built by the Dominicans in the 19th century as a municipal cemetery, it was initially intended for Spanish aristocratic families and later for victims of epidemics such as cholera. Historical figures, including José Rizal, also rested among its walls before their remains were moved.
In 1966, the place was transformed into a national park and today it is presented as a space of contemplation and culture. Its stone walls, chapels and gardens evoke a past of recollection, while its tranquil atmosphere makes it the scene of concerts, weddings and cultural events. Walking through Paco Park is a space where memory intertwines with contemporary life, offering a green respite in the middle of the city.
Rizal Park, or Rizal Park, is one of the most iconic urban spaces in the Philippines. With more than 57 hectares of gardens, monuments and cultural spaces, this park is located in Ermita, Manila, next to the bay and near Intramuros. Its historical significance is immense: here José Rizal was executed in 1896, a fact that lit the flame of Philippine independence.
The park houses the Rizal Monument, guarded day and night by ceremonial guards, a symbol of respect and national pride. Walking through Luneta is a mosaic of history and culture: musical fountains, sculptures, themed pavilions and spaces for concerts and celebrations. It is also a meeting place for families, students and travelers seeking to understand the Filipino spirit.
