The anniversary of the founding of Manila on June 24, 1571, by the Spanish conquistador Miguel Lopez de Legazpi. Manila is the oldest city in the Philippines and the second most populous city after Quezon City. The day is observed with cultural events, concerts, and the recognition of Manila's role as the capital of the country. Manila has survived wars, earthquakes, fires, and typhoons, and it remains the cultural and political heart of the Philippines. The city is home to Intramuros, the walled city built by the Spanish in the 16th century.
