This Boeing 737 passenger plane whistled the barrier of the heavy dark clouds at the Manlanino-Aquino International Airport, all the way north, and flew to Guangzhou.
The evening, the black sky hugged the black clouds under the windows window, and gradually combined into one. It seemed to be woven into a black giant net to swallow this small aircraft. At this time, the last line of the distance in the distance passed through the clouds when it was about to fall, leaving a touch of brown red, or purple yellow, and mixed with dark gray bar, woven into a beautiful strange ribbon, which made people live in people, which makes people live in people, which makes people live in people, which makes people people be in a beautiful ribbon. I feel a rare gorgeous in the world, but also feel a little bit of fear. This kind of beauty is too hearty, and it doesn't really like the sky.
The last touch of light gradually sinks into the deep darkness. Under 10,000 meters, it is the countless times to sweep the South China Sea in southern China. Except for more than 100 people on this machine, all around How far can't you find a trace of people?
about three years ago, Malaysia Airlines MH370 also took off from the South China Sea and flew on the land of China. When their relatives look forward to the Beijing Airport, when they are glad to go home at the moment of boarding, they will always stay on that night.
The people on the machine disappear forever and do not know where the soul is.
The people in the family have lost their soul forever and cannot find the way forward.
, closed, open forever, looking forward to, waiting.
The nights of countless nights, hearing the knock on the door, seeing the familiar face appeared on the door?
Perhaps, one day, even the figure was blurred, but the heart was now nowhere to be placed.
The accident will happen today? If it happened, can I run dozens of marathon and a 100 -kilometer off -road race, and people who are about to fight for 24 hours are more vibrant than others?
or in the face of strong natural power, we are just a fine ant, any struggle and tenacity are powerless?
At 11 o'clock on October 23rd, the plane landed at Manlanino Akino Airport. After settlement at the Chinatown Hotel in Mulunno District, it was already more than 12 o'clock. The boss warned me that Manila's law and order were not very good, it was best not to go out too early and too late. But I was accustomed to running at any city, and I got up at less than six o'clock. I put on running shoes and felt like the impression of Google Maps, and ran out of the outside.
. As soon as I was about to run, a local old man saw me enthusiastically greeted me, and I waved to respond. Although it is only six o'clock, there are already cars on the street. On the opposite side is a Mika Plaza with Chinese logo, and a motorcycle on the street has made a huge roar. come over.
In running towards the gate of Chinatown, I saw a lot of strange and strange cars all the way along the way, a jeep in front, and a open car in the back. There are many people sitting inside. It should be a transportation like a bus, which is huge and deafening when it is accelerated. When I came back, I learned that this kind of car is called Gypini, which is also a scene of Manila. He was originally converted from a jeep of the U.S. military after World War II. Although each car has a fixed driving route, it is beckoned and stopped at any time. The price is cheap, and a few peso can take a trip, so it is welcomed by local ordinary citizens. This kind of car is similar to the domestic China -Pakistan cars. Of course, China ’s China -Pakistan cars are much better than Gypini, far less noise. This kind of car is convenient for passengers, and there is no door behind, and some passengers even hang them behind. It is really shocking to see, but the locals seem to have learned early. What accident. People say that Manila has eight monsters, and the two of them are: the traffic is chaotic, and there are few car accidents. The sound of motorcycles is loud, Jeepy. I ran out of only one kilometer in the morning, and I had a deep feeling of this.
One kilometers from the hotel to the gate of the city. Crossing the river is a Roman -style construction Manila City Hall, and then turns left to the left. 85%of the Philippines believe in Catholicism and are rare Catholic countries in Asia. Churches in the city are everywhere. On the side of the road, there were many wandering people on the street, black and thin, and saw pedestrians reach out to show their desire and sorrowful eyes. The light rail passes through the road, a few minutes, each trip. Later, I learned that there were only two lines of Manila's light rails. It was mainly through the area of the old city.
The first day I ran through the Simadu District on the north bank of the Pasi River. This is the old city of Manila. The houses are all dark and old, but there are many schools. Elementary school, I see students wearing all kinds of school uniforms. Manila's school occupies very small, and there is no wall. Generally, a door hole is left on the first floor as the school gate. There is no playground in all the schools I saw in the local area, and there are only one or two basketball courts. According to the boss and friend of the relatively famous Zhongzheng School in the Chinese area, the students have no chance to run at all. They just do exercises, and they cannot completely straighten their hands. It can be seen how crowded.
I usually run for about ten kilometers every day. After running out of five kilometers, I returned to the hotel again. After punching the boss's suggestion, I went to Jollibee (happy bee) to eat breakfast. Jollibee is the largest chain catering company in the Philippines. It has entered the Chinese market. Its boss is also a Chinese. Its goal is to defeat McDonald's and become the world's largest chain catering group.
In my boss, in the Philippines, Jollibee business is better than McDonald's. From the observations of more than ten days in the local area, the number of consumers in the number of stores is indeed higher than McDonald's, and it is better than KFC than KFC. Essence In fact, the products and pricing of both parties are not much different. Maybe Jollibee's boss knows the taste of the Philippines market and the people. From my consumption experience in two local restaurants, Jollibee's taste seems to be more delicious.
I order a package, including a cup of cola, a burger, a chicken leg, the price of 95 peso (the peso is about 7.5: 1, 95 peso is about 13 yuan).) This price is far lower than McDonald's At the domestic price, I thought that McDonald's is not competitive because of expensive. After all, the Filipinos' general income is not high. But I later saw McDonald's price similar to it.
. Although Jollibee's breakfast is quite economical in our opinion, the locals will eat a meal as luxury. I did n’t ask, I do n’t know how much a meal of breakfast, it is estimated that it is about 20 or thirty pesos.
during the day, watch the local market with the boss. Opposite the hotel is Manila's largest small commodity wholesale market 168 and 999 shopping malls. A few floors are small shops separated into a few square meters to sell a variety of small products. Basically, they are all Chinese, and there are very few Philippines. Locals in the Philippines, if they read well in college, they will enter government agencies or foreign companies. No one will do such a small business, and ordinary people have neither financial ability nor resources to do business. They can only come to the Chinese to give the Chinese people. The boss works.
In except for a few of these Chinese people, most of them were the new generation of overseas Chinese in the Philippines after the reform and opening up of China in the 1980s, and most of them were citizenship with the Philippine green card. Most of them came from Fujian. Most of Quanzhou people.
The people in the market are crowded and moved slowly. The boss said that after a while, when the Philippines wanted to purchase Christmas gifts, this road was even more spoiled. It is like a person who crosses the river, and there are various stalls to see the stitches, and it is even more difficult to walk. At this time, there are still some cars who want to pass by these roads. Essence
I. I pay attention to the vendors selling fruits on the roadside. It is nothing different from the domestic varieties. It is nothing more than apple, banana, longan, orange, etc. The price is slightly lower than that in China, and the taste is pretty good.

The next day, I ran from the Kingdom of King Spain to Like National Park. Spain has ruled the Philippines since the middle and late 16th world, and was replaced by the United States until the end of the 19th century. Therefore, the Philippines has a deep Spanish brand, and the Spanish King City is also the highest quality and best preservation part of Manila's old town.
The church when you go, magnificent, solemn and beautiful, simple and dignified, making people respect. I hurriedly took two photos and continued to run forward. Those traditional Spanish architecture flowed through the side by side, instantly thinking that I was in Madrid, not Manila.
It after running, I found that there was a Augustine Cathedral where I thought I had run through this church. The day before I left Manila, I learned that it was the Manila Cathedral, and the Augustine Cathedral was not far from the south, only hundreds of meters away. Both churches were built shortly after the Spaniard rule Manila ruled at the end of the 16th century. I was a little surprised. It was so close to each other. Why did two churches be built almost at the same time? Perhaps the Spaniards are too enthusiastic about religion. A church is not enough to accommodate their respect for God.
The city of Manila is not large, only 6 million square kilometers, but the actual resident population reaches more than 20 million, known as the most crowded city in the world. Therefore, there are very few public spaces of Manila, and it is difficult to find a good place to run. Limau National Park should be the largest public park in this city. The park is distributed by the road, and the middle piece is the core, and there are many people running in the morning. The middle of the brick shop in the middle is one kilometer, with a beautiful water view in the middle, with various shapes of fountains, and there are several small gardens on the side, including Chinese gardens, Australian gardens, and Japanese gardens. China Garden is the largest and most beautiful area. At the door, Mr. Zhongshan's "the world is the public", and I also ran into a circle. In addition to running in the park, there are also Tai Chi, swords, and dances similar to Chinese square dances. However, their square dance is more explosive and leading, but they are mainly involved in young people.
Since then, I basically ran to Licha Park every day and ran a few laps in it. Only once, because the distance is to be stretched according to the convention weekend, and I want to see the scenery of Manila's most beautiful Rols Waterfront Avenue, I am out of Raksha Park towards Rars Haibin Avenue below.
This day is Sunday. Strangely, there is no car on Rars Avenue. On the opposite side, there is a team like a float parade, and many people are running on my side, but not as many people as domestic marathon competitions, there are no roads, and there are no cheerleaders on the roadside. The important thing is that these runners have no registered cloth on their chests.
I actually wanted to have the opportunity to participate in a local running competition, preferably half marathon. When I transferred to the Bay to a seaside square, I saw that there was a timing arch of a running game. It should be seen that the time displayed above should be a half marathon. After I took a picture, I continued to run forward, and when I ran back a few kilometers and returned to pass through the arch, the game was not over yet. Finally, I saw some runners had a registered number cloth, but most of them were not hung. Are people running and running or they may not have to register. Later, I asked the boss, and she said that the local Marathon was held every Sunday every Sunday. But on the one hand, because of the weather, the second aspect is to affect less transportation, and the competition is early. No wonder I started running at five in the morning. When I ran for a while in Raksha Park, many half -horse runners had finished running. The local marathon is far from being as formal in China. It is a bit like domestic running reunion. It may be responsible for the supply. Next time I have the opportunity to go to Manila, I will fight for their marathon games.

The important task is to examine the local real estate industry. Compared with domestic real estate is the economic pillar, although Manila has also been very hot in recent years, it is far less concerned about everyone's concern as domestic people. He even said that he has nothing to do with most Philippines. According to a rough observation, Manila, which has a population of more than 20 million, may have a new real estate transaction volume of less than one million square meters a year.
, on the one hand, because the average GDP of Manila is only about $ 5,000, and the rich and the poor is disparity. The monthly income of the ordinary class is only 35,000 yuan, and the price of the new house of Manila is more than 15,000. Of course It is not an ordinary income class that can bear it. Furthermore, the Philippines are far less enthusiastic about buying a house as the Chinese, or that only Chinese people in the world are most enthusiastic about buying a house. For them, renting a house, using money to eat and play is much happy. The most important thing for the Philippines to speak most importantly is that the most important thing people live are happiness, so they will use most of their income for consumption, and rarely savings, let alone the mortgage of decades of mortgages to be a slave.
Manila real estate is underdeveloped because of the Philippines is a private owner of the land, so developers want to obtain land for development and can only be purchased from private hands. Due to the decentralization of the land, it is difficult to develop large projects to develop large projects. Essence Therefore, the normal scale of real estate projects in marathon is small. If it covers an area of 2000,000 square meters, it is a large project. And the marathon has no restrictions on the plot ratio and building density, so most houses are densely dense, and many units are not good. Of course, it is impossible to have domestic garden landscapes. Therefore, the overall living quality is relatively low. Essence The house rented by the boss is a shopping mall with six floors under the bottom. There is a layer of overhead garden on the shopping mall. It can be taken there. This is already a good condition in the local area.
of course, there are also many major developers and big projects. For example, Ayala, the largest developer in the Philippines, and the Spanish consortium. Manila's CBD Makati (locally called the city, which is actually equivalent to about the scale of a street office in Shenzhen), which is planned and constructed by Ayara as a whole. CBD, many internationally renowned enterprises are working there, and there are a large number of international famous shops. Makati has been developed since the 1970s. After that, Ayala has developed a BGC New Town not far from Makati, which is a more modern business office area than Makati. You come here and feel that he and the old town are two worlds. The architecture is stylish and beautiful, full of modern atmosphere, luxurious and elegant, wide roads, traffic order, high -end shopping malls, clean and comfortable public space, like a paradise, beautiful.
The BGC has been developed, and Ayala has started to develop a new city called Arca South after running BGC five kilometers. This new city covers an area of nearly 1,000 acres. It is mainly residential. It has a large -scale business, but I am strange that I have not seen a supporting school. Construction? In short, Manila's real estate development model is still very different from domestic.
. For example, such large projects will first build a beautiful display area in the entrance, there is a beautiful marketing center, a delicate garden landscape, and there will be tall advertisements around Surrounding the wall. And even the Philippine No. 1 developer like A Yala has no such set at all. A slightly shabby small sales building is inside the project. You have to drive in the construction road. Do n’t say the landscape display advertising wall at the door. There is not even a guide. We still ask the security guard to enter. A few high -rise apartments were built in the first phase of it, which has been sold for two years. The price has risen from the original 150,000 yuan to the current 18,000 yuan. It can be seen that the sales speed is still very slow. I think that if the same project is developed in large domestic real estate companies such as Vanke and Evergrande, even if Manila's real estate demand is not as strong as domestic, the sales speed will be much faster.
This should be said to be quite high in the architectural design and indoor design level of Ayala. This can be seen from the appearance of the BGC building and the model house we saw at their headquarters. The development concept, especially the marketing concept, may still have a large gap with domestic. It is said that well -known developers in China are preparing to develop large real estate projects in the marathon. Perhaps it will have a huge impact on the real estate industry in the marathon at that time.
. Since the marathon's house is permanent property rights, and the rental return rate is relatively high, the highest annual return rate can reach 10%, and the low is also above 5%. Therefore, many domestic investors have begun in recent years. Disposal in Manila real estate, and big developers such as Ayala are naturally their first choice. When we were looking at the house in Ayala headquarters, there were only two people in it, and the other was a Chinese who speak Mandarin.
In addition to high -rise apartments in the city, we also inspected some villa projects. These projects are mainly distributed in two areas, one is Pasai City near the airport, and the other is Albon from BGC to south.
The legal system in the Philippines is almost completely copied in the United States. Their land is private, and there are two types of real estate development land, one is villa land and the other is apartment land. Villa land has existing land rights and real estate rights, but only the Philippines can buy it, foreigners cannot buy, and apartments can buy foreigners. Therefore, whether it is a local Chinese and the Chinese who invest in, they can only buy apartments. Of course, there are a small number of Chinese businessmen who buy villas through changing methods. A partner of the boss bought a resort villa in a seaside resort island more than 100 kilometers away from Manila.
The villas are generally large in the suburbs. However, because the land for villas can only be built in villas, it is not like the country. Generally, it is a composite real estate. It is an organic combination of villas, houses, and high -rise buildings, which can digest faster. The natural digestion of the pure villa project is very slow. Coupled with the lack of developed economy, crowded transportation, and lower development level, the development progress of several villa projects we have watched is quite slow. For many years, residents are still sparse.
Manila sells villas to plan the entire land into one -building land. Customers are buying land, and then commissioned developers to build and renovate (you can also build and renovate yourself, but the developer can save trouble. ), Developers will have several design solutions for owners to choose from. A villa covers an area of ranging from 300 square meters to 500 square meters. The price of a piece of land is between RMB 2 million and 5 million, and the construction fee is about 1 million. For a capital city, this price is not high. However, there are very few developers in the Manila villa area. Basically, it is a simple house, so the actual living quality is not high. Judging from the several projects we see, a lonely door is there. There are no exquisite landscape display, luxurious clubs, and so on. Only a villa project developed in Ayala has been in the first and second phases. There are some commercial facilities in the periphery, and there are more guests in it, with a strong atmosphere of life.

near the residence, there are some St. Tomas University. I checked the information online and said that this university is the world's largest Catholic University, which keeps many ancient ancients. Building, I naturally go to find out.
I I checked the path on the Internet first, and then gurgically walked there, but I still found this university for a long time. Because, the largest Catholic University in the world is too unknown. He has no walls of domestic universities and no large school buildings. You can notice it even from the side. I walked around the map for a while, and finally came to the ancient floor I saw on the Internet. There are many exquisite sculptures in this Roman -style building. The quaint stone walls show the thickness of history. I want to go in and take a look. Unfortunately, the security guard will not let me take a few photos. Suddenly left.
The standard football field on campus, but there is no runway. This is the only football field I saw in Manila. Marathon is gold, and most schools do not have playgrounds. I see the most in Manila, which is a simple basketball court. These basketball courts are on a small empty land on the roadside. Choose a basketball rack at a high place (the height is not necessarily standard, and there is no rebound. Some are set up two shelf in the middle of the road. What is more exaggerated is that on a small village on the coveon island, I saw a basketball frame hanging on a tree. play basketball.
In a poor area when looking for St. Tomas University, a group of children played at a basketball court on the roadside. Seeing that I was taking pictures, a child immediately stopped and put on Pose for me to shoot. joy. The Philippines love basketball very much. The level once lived in Asia. I was thinking that one day in the future, will this young man appear in the Asian stadium to enter my eyes again? Who said clearly.
The last day, I went to the Chinese Yishan. This is where the Chinese soul of the Chinese who lived in Manila returned to heaven. They came here from thousands of miles away to make a living. Maybe they wanted to return to the roots, but in the end, they could only go to heaven to find the old dreams of their hometown.
This day is Halloween, and the sky is drizzle. The original quiet and lonely Yishan people are crowded. Among them, there are tourists like me, and more of those deceased. Yishan's cemeteries are expensive and even higher than house prices. After expiration, land fees are paid every year. A graveyard is more than ten square meters, as many as 100 square meters, which shows the economic strength of the deceased family. Some families later declined in business, and they were unable to bear the cemetery fees of their ancestors, so the cemetery would destroy their tombs and sell them to others. At that time, it would be difficult for the descendants to raise their heads in my compatriots.
The descendants of a deceased, dozens of more than dozens of mouths, may be rarely gathered on weekdays. On this day, they gathered from all directions and even overseas. There are even beds and beds on the side of the big tomb, which can live in it. Of course, most of them just come to sacrifice. Maybe in the afternoon, this cemetery will return to silence. And a Philippine Chinese Anti -Japanese Monument, although there are hundreds of people engraved on the monument, the memorial hall is deserted because of the dead.
The cemetery buried by tens of thousands of overseas Chinese is also a museum of all architecture. There are traditional Chinese buildings, Lingnan architecture, Roman -style buildings, Greek -style buildings, more luxurious Byzalian church -style buildings, and mixed -match buildings. These people's experience before life must be full of legendary and richness. After death, a magnificent building complex was also left to the world, allowing people to see a pile of solidified stone stele walls to a period of history.
This Boeing 737 passenger plane whistled the barrier of the heavy dark clouds at the Manlanino-Aquino International Airport, all the way north, and flew to Guangzhou.
The evening, the black sky hugged the black clouds under the windows window, and gradually combined into one. It seemed to be woven into a black giant net to swallow this small aircraft.

I feel a rare gorgeous in the world, but also feel a little bit of fear. This kind of beauty is too hearty, and it doesn't really like the sky.
The last touch of light gradually sinks into the deep darkness. Under 10,000 meters, it is the countless times to sweep the South China Sea in southern China. Except for more than 100 people on this machine, all around How far can't you find a trace of people?

In addition to running in the park, there are also Tai Chi, swords, and dances similar to Chinese square dances. However, their square dance is more explosive and leading, but they are mainly involved in young people.
Since then, I basically ran to Licha Park every day and ran a few laps in it. Only once, because the distance is to be stretched according to the convention weekend, and I want to see the scenery of Manila's most beautiful Rols Waterfront Avenue, I am out of Raksha Park towards Rars Haibin Avenue below.
This day is Sunday. Strangely, there is no car on Rars Avenue. On the opposite side, there is a team like a float parade, and many people are running on my side, but not as many people as domestic marathon competitions, there are no roads, and there are no cheerleaders on the roadside. The important thing is that these runners have no registered cloth on their chests.
I actually wanted to have the opportunity to participate in a local running competition, preferably half marathon. When I transferred to the Bay to a seaside square, I saw that there was a timing arch of a running game. It should be seen that the time displayed above should be a half marathon. After I took a picture, I continued to run forward, and when I ran back a few kilometers and returned to pass through the arch, the game was not over yet. Finally, I saw some runners had a registered number cloth, but most of them were not hung. Are people running and running or they may not have to register. Later, I asked the boss, and she said that the local Marathon was held every Sunday every Sunday. But on the one hand, because of the weather, the second aspect is to affect less transportation, and the competition is early. No wonder I started running at five in the morning. When I ran for a while in Raksha Park, many half -horse runners had finished running. The local marathon is far from being as formal in China. It is a bit like domestic running reunion. It may be responsible for the supply. Next time I have the opportunity to go to Manila, I will fight for their marathon games.

The important task is to examine the local real estate industry. Compared with domestic real estate is the economic pillar, although Manila has also been very hot in recent years, it is far less concerned about everyone's concern as domestic people. He even said that he has nothing to do with most Philippines. According to a rough observation, Manila, which has a population of more than 20 million, may have a new real estate transaction volume of less than one million square meters a year.
, on the one hand, because the average GDP of Manila is only about $ 5,000, and the rich and the poor is disparity. The monthly income of the ordinary class is only 35,000 yuan, and the price of the new house of Manila is more than 15,000. Of course It is not an ordinary income class that can bear it. Furthermore, the Philippines are far less enthusiastic about buying a house as the Chinese, or that only Chinese people in the world are most enthusiastic about buying a house. For them, renting a house, using money to eat and play is much happy. The most important thing for the Philippines to speak most importantly is that the most important thing people live are happiness, so they will use most of their income for consumption, and rarely savings, let alone the mortgage of decades of mortgages to be a slave.
Manila real estate is underdeveloped because of the Philippines is a private owner of the land, so developers want to obtain land for development and can only be purchased from private hands. Due to the decentralization of the land, it is difficult to develop large projects to develop large projects. Essence Therefore, the normal scale of real estate projects in marathon is small. If it covers an area of 2000,000 square meters, it is a large project. And the marathon has no restrictions on the plot ratio and building density, so most houses are densely dense, and many units are not good. Of course, it is impossible to have domestic garden landscapes. Therefore, the overall living quality is relatively low. Essence The house rented by the boss is a shopping mall with six floors under the bottom. There is a layer of overhead garden on the shopping mall. It can be taken there. This is already a good condition in the local area.
of course, there are also many major developers and big projects. For example, Ayala, the largest developer in the Philippines, and the Spanish consortium. Manila's CBD Makati (locally called the city, which is actually equivalent to about the scale of a street office in Shenzhen), which is planned and constructed by Ayara as a whole. CBD, many internationally renowned enterprises are working there, and there are a large number of international famous shops. Makati has been developed since the 1970s. After that, Ayala has developed a BGC New Town not far from Makati, which is a more modern business office area than Makati. You come here and feel that he and the old town are two worlds. The architecture is stylish and beautiful, full of modern atmosphere, luxurious and elegant, wide roads, traffic order, high -end shopping malls, clean and comfortable public space, like a paradise, beautiful.
The BGC has been developed, and Ayala has started to develop a new city called Arca South after running BGC five kilometers. This new city covers an area of nearly 1,000 acres. It is mainly residential. It has a large -scale business, but I am strange that I have not seen a supporting school. Construction? In short, Manila's real estate development model is still very different from domestic.
. For example, such large projects will first build a beautiful display area in the entrance, there is a beautiful marketing center, a delicate garden landscape, and there will be tall advertisements around Surrounding the wall. And even the Philippine No. 1 developer like A Yala has no such set at all. A slightly shabby small sales building is inside the project. You have to drive in the construction road. Do n’t say the landscape display advertising wall at the door. There is not even a guide. We still ask the security guard to enter. A few high -rise apartments were built in the first phase of it, which has been sold for two years. The price has risen from the original 150,000 yuan to the current 18,000 yuan. It can be seen that the sales speed is still very slow. I think that if the same project is developed in large domestic real estate companies such as Vanke and Evergrande, even if Manila's real estate demand is not as strong as domestic, the sales speed will be much faster.
This should be said to be quite high in the architectural design and indoor design level of Ayala. This can be seen from the appearance of the BGC building and the model house we saw at their headquarters. The development concept, especially the marketing concept, may still have a large gap with domestic. It is said that well -known developers in China are preparing to develop large real estate projects in the marathon. Perhaps it will have a huge impact on the real estate industry in the marathon at that time.
. Since the marathon's house is permanent property rights, and the rental return rate is relatively high, the highest annual return rate can reach 10%, and the low is also above 5%. Therefore, many domestic investors have begun in recent years. Disposal in Manila real estate, and big developers such as Ayala are naturally their first choice. When we were looking at the house in Ayala headquarters, there were only two people in it, and the other was a Chinese who speak Mandarin.
In addition to high -rise apartments in the city, we also inspected some villa projects. These projects are mainly distributed in two areas, one is Pasai City near the airport, and the other is Albon from BGC to south.
The legal system in the Philippines is almost completely copied in the United States. Their land is private, and there are two types of real estate development land, one is villa land and the other is apartment land. Villa land has existing land rights and real estate rights, but only the Philippines can buy it, foreigners cannot buy, and apartments can buy foreigners. Therefore, whether it is a local Chinese and the Chinese who invest in, they can only buy apartments. Of course, there are a small number of Chinese businessmen who buy villas through changing methods. A partner of the boss bought a resort villa in a seaside resort island more than 100 kilometers away from Manila.
The villas are generally large in the suburbs. However, because the land for villas can only be built in villas, it is not like the country. Generally, it is a composite real estate. It is an organic combination of villas, houses, and high -rise buildings, which can digest faster. The natural digestion of the pure villa project is very slow. Coupled with the lack of developed economy, crowded transportation, and lower development level, the development progress of several villa projects we have watched is quite slow. For many years, residents are still sparse.
Manila sells villas to plan the entire land into one -building land. Customers are buying land, and then commissioned developers to build and renovate (you can also build and renovate yourself, but the developer can save trouble. ), Developers will have several design solutions for owners to choose from. A villa covers an area of ranging from 300 square meters to 500 square meters. The price of a piece of land is between RMB 2 million and 5 million, and the construction fee is about 1 million. For a capital city, this price is not high. However, there are very few developers in the Manila villa area. Basically, it is a simple house, so the actual living quality is not high. Judging from the several projects we see, a lonely door is there. There are no exquisite landscape display, luxurious clubs, and so on. Only a villa project developed in Ayala has been in the first and second phases. There are some commercial facilities in the periphery, and there are more guests in it, with a strong atmosphere of life.

near the residence, there are some St. Tomas University. I checked the information online and said that this university is the world's largest Catholic University, which keeps many ancient ancients. Building, I naturally go to find out.
I I checked the path on the Internet first, and then gurgically walked there, but I still found this university for a long time. Because, the largest Catholic University in the world is too unknown. He has no walls of domestic universities and no large school buildings. You can notice it even from the side. I walked around the map for a while, and finally came to the ancient floor I saw on the Internet. There are many exquisite sculptures in this Roman -style building. The quaint stone walls show the thickness of history. I want to go in and take a look. Unfortunately, the security guard will not let me take a few photos. Suddenly left.
The standard football field on campus, but there is no runway. This is the only football field I saw in Manila. Marathon is gold, and most schools do not have playgrounds. I see the most in Manila, which is a simple basketball court. These basketball courts are on a small empty land on the roadside. Choose a basketball rack at a high place (the height is not necessarily standard, and there is no rebound. Some are set up two shelf in the middle of the road. What is more exaggerated is that on a small village on the coveon island, I saw a basketball frame hanging on a tree. play basketball.
In a poor area when looking for St. Tomas University, a group of children played at a basketball court on the roadside. Seeing that I was taking pictures, a child immediately stopped and put on Pose for me to shoot. joy. The Philippines love basketball very much. The level once lived in Asia. I was thinking that one day in the future, will this young man appear in the Asian stadium to enter my eyes again? Who said clearly.
The last day, I went to the Chinese Yishan. This is where the Chinese soul of the Chinese who lived in Manila returned to heaven. They came here from thousands of miles away to make a living. Maybe they wanted to return to the roots, but in the end, they could only go to heaven to find the old dreams of their hometown.
This day is Halloween, and the sky is drizzle. The original quiet and lonely Yishan people are crowded. Among them, there are tourists like me, and more of those deceased. Yishan's cemeteries are expensive and even higher than house prices. After expiration, land fees are paid every year. A graveyard is more than ten square meters, as many as 100 square meters, which shows the economic strength of the deceased family. Some families later declined in business, and they were unable to bear the cemetery fees of their ancestors, so the cemetery would destroy their tombs and sell them to others. At that time, it would be difficult for the descendants to raise their heads in my compatriots.
The descendants of a deceased, dozens of more than dozens of mouths, may be rarely gathered on weekdays. On this day, they gathered from all directions and even overseas. There are even beds and beds on the side of the big tomb, which can live in it. Of course, most of them just come to sacrifice. Maybe in the afternoon, this cemetery will return to silence. And a Philippine Chinese Anti -Japanese Monument, although there are hundreds of people engraved on the monument, the memorial hall is deserted because of the dead.
The cemetery buried by tens of thousands of overseas Chinese is also a museum of all architecture. There are traditional Chinese buildings, Lingnan architecture, Roman -style buildings, Greek -style buildings, more luxurious Byzalian church -style buildings, and mixed -match buildings. These people's experience before life must be full of legendary and richness. After death, a magnificent building complex was also left to the world, allowing people to see a pile of solidified stone stele walls to a period of history.
