ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that some of the old is preserved. History interspersed with modernity keeps cities interesting!

ReplyDeleteTe Spanish colonized a lot on many continents, sometimes not in the nicest way... At least they left some very nice architecture! :-)
ReplyDeleteSo many formerly beautiful old houses in Manila — wish they could all be restored to look like this again.

hilda: oh, i wish so too! i realize the lack of restoration details when i started this blog...
