Makati is a mix of old and new


Like this old but new Jeepney. Jeepneys grew from the US leaving Jeeps here after WWII but are now produced locally. There is a smaller personal size version that really shows its 1940's roots. I will show you one later. 


 This is a building across from where I live. The inside is quite grand looking. I ate some good food whose name I cannot pronounce here. Philippine food is great. I am surprised there is not more of it around my home country USA.

 Outside the same building from across the street.
Though much of Makati is sparkling new there are some older sections you will be seeing later.
