Philippines' historic walled city to rise again ABS-CBN News Latest Philippine Headlines, Breaking News, Video, Analysis, Features

You know what would be nice? The "new" Intramuros should look like Senado square in Macau where they are able to incorporate colonial architecture with modern retail shops, cafes and hotels. The Starbucks near the Buluarte de San Diego is actually a great start (see photo above)   They just have to relocate the squatters and maybe make the entire complex a "no-car" zone. Whatever it is, I hope these efforts become succesful and lead to the resurrection of the "Walled city".
