This museum has paintings and sculptures by the most prominent Filipino artists in the 19th and 20th centuries. Among them are Juan Luna, Fernando Zóbel and Félix Hidalgo, who represented a wave of Filipino art that swelled as the country was pushing for independence from Spain.
Continuously improving and evolving, old Manila's expansive museum district offers a wealth of art, history and culture for an unbeatable price - free!
Located in two heritage buildings on Burgos Street, the National Museum is the best place to spend a couple of hours or more. Wonderfully curated, excellently maintained, and a chockful of all the cultural wonders that the Philippines has to offer. Best part - it's FREE!
