Binondo Tours

Binondo tours often highlight iconic landmarks and must-visit culinary stops that capture the rich culture and history of Manila’s Chinatown. A popular attraction is the Binondo Church (Minor Basilica of Saint Lorenzo Ruiz), known for its Baroque architecture and deep historical significance.

Walking along Ongpin Street, the main artery of Chinatown, you'll encounter traditional herbal shops, jewelry stores, and bustling Chinese bakeries. Food stops along the way may include beloved establishments serving authentic Chinese favorites like dumplings, fried siopao, and fresh lumpia.

Many tours also feature a visit to the Filipino-Chinese Friendship Arch, a symbol of the long-standing relationship between Filipino and Chinese communities. A stop at Carvajal Street, a narrow alley filled with local vendors selling fresh produce and street food, adds a unique sensory experience.

Some tours also include Escolta Street, known for its historic buildings and old-world charm, providing a glimpse of Manila City’s past as a thriving commercial district. Whether you're visiting for history, culture, or food, a Binondo tour offers an unforgettable immersion into the heart of Chinatown.
