a month agoI recently visited the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) in Manila, although I only had the chance to see the exterior. Even so, it was a memorable experience. The building is a stunning example of brutalist architecture, with its massive concrete structure and unique, bold design. It stands out in the cityscape, making a strong visual impression. The area around the CCP is beautifully maintained, with open spaces and gardens that make for a relaxing walk. Even without stepping inside, the architecture alone is worth the visit. The CCP’s impressive design and the serene surroundings create a great atmosphere. I can't wait to return and explore the cultural and artistic offerings inside the building.

a year agoIt is a good place to go to if you need a place to unwind. Also the use of different lights accentuates the beauty of the artworks. But, I went here during the redevelopment of the CCP, that's why the only floor that was open to the public is the third floor which is an art gallery hall. Nice experience even though I didn't get the full experience.

a year agoThe place has been just recently reopened (September) and will be soon closed for renovation (since January 1, 2023) for at least 2 years. So hurry up if you want to see the exhibition of over 200 artworks and archival materials of Imelda Cajipe Endaya. The exhibition titled “Refusal and Hope, a Retrospective” can be viewed at the main gallery and adjacent hallways. It will last until December 4. The venue is open Tuesday to Sunday, 10 am to 6 pm. The entrance is free of charge.

12 months agoA great place for cultural & tourism events at Pasay City. It was conceived in 1966 when President Ferdinand Marcos issued Executive Order No. 60, establishing its board and arranging for his wife, First Lady Imelda Marcos to become chair of its board of directors.
