Binondo Lines and Patterns

I love going to Binondo not just for the food but also for the sights (and cats but I will do a separate post on that of course). I like looking at the buildings, shops and all the little things that make Binondo interesting.

Old buildings in Divisoria

I love looking at this old building in Divisoria. I wonder what it was and when it was built.It must have been really nice when it was built. The details are amazing. I hope I can find more information on this building. I also hope that they don't tear it down completely :(

The Remnants Center is also as interesting. I am actually amazed that it is still occupied! There are a lot of stores on the ground floor and I think people live on the second and third floors.The name suits the building well now but I wonder why it was named "The Remnants Center" to begin with.
