Located at the heart of the capital city, Rizal Park represents a tribute to the Philippine national hero--Jose Rizal--who was shot during a local rebellion against Spanish colonialists. Overlooking the Manila Bay, the park contains many recreational, cultural, and educational facilities, including historical markers, an observatory, an open-air concert hall, and lots of colorful fountains.

One of the best places I've been in Manila. Good for walking , jogging and especially for having a Family picnic. The view itself is fascinating and cleanliness are well maintained.

I love the dancing fountain! The place is nice and clean, though not much of social distancing was observed, but not one area was crowded. Nice place to hangout with friends and family. Though some parks like the Japanese park is still closed.

A large clean park in the centre of the city which offers a great location to escape the bustle and noise of the city. There’s plenty of seating throughout and lots of things to admire, from the main monument to the Chinese garden and market stalls. Covid restrictions mean you can only enter / exit through designated gates, with the need to have your temperature checked, but it’s no hassle and certainly a place I’d recommend wandering through on a visit to the city.
