MANILA (National Capital Region) -- area code (63-2)

The intersection of Maria Orosa St and Julio Nakpil St in Malate is the "X marks the spot" center of gay Manila. The whole street is lined with various gay establishments. Bars are within five minutes from each other, very similar to the Silom area in Bangkok. There are of course other gay establishments in Metro Manila widely spread over this mega city.

Orosa St., between Malvar and Nakpil St. Upscale and non-commercial meeting place. Live music and karaoke sing-alongs. The place is jam-packed with a trendy, young crowd of mostly straights. Not really much of a place for gays anymore although there are still some who hang out in and outside of the place.
- O Bar
On the corner of Nakpil and Orosa (under Top and Bottom). A hot spot. Although the staff are striaght, the clientele are mostly gay. There are drag shows four nights weekly and go go dancers all weekend.
