Even before there was Makati and Ortigas Business Districts, Binondo or Chinatown was the business center in Manila. Located along the Pasig River, this place was the center of commerce even before the Spanish regime.
A main historical site, the Binondo Church stands as the long witness to the rich history of catholic Filipino-Chinese or Chinoys. This is also the birthplace of the first Filipino saint, San Lorenzo Ruiz.
