Yim Tin Tsai
2 savesRecommendation by Lemi
Mangroves have taken over the former salt-farming town on Yim Tin Tsai (鹽田仔). It used to be inhabited by the Hakka people, migrant families who settled here from Guangdong. Now, the settlement remains deserted, slowly reclaimed by nature. Rows of townhouses, a schoolhouse, and a Roman Catholic church once catered to the island’s population. It makes for a pretty atmospheric hike frequented by day-trippers looking for a little lore and history. Head to Ching Po School for a more educational approach to the village’s heritage!

Intramuros
Without having to drive far, Intramuros allows you to enjoy yourself in a rich history hidden behind huge walls and cobblestone street that have been destroyed, preserved, and rebuilt many times. By visiting Bahay Tsinoy, Casa Manila, or the Distileria Limtuaco Museum, the country's oldest distillery, you may find yourself in the tactile traces of diverse cultures that influenced Intramuros, such as American, Spanish, and Chinese.
