I did some reading from trip advisor before going for the trip. Despite the pandemic the place is busy. Everybody is wearing masks. Yeah, I went to Taboora Street and indeed found a lot of shops selling bottles. It is worth visiting each to have price comparison.

The architecture itself is one for the books! I super love its pillars and windows. For me, the fountain in front of Manila Central Post Office iis the plus factor one should never miss. Yes, you could watch its beautiful Fountain Day & Night but for me it is lovely especially at night!
