Cities are centers of population, commerce and culture; they characterize the way of living of a society. In the Philippines, the Walled City of Intramuros has been the center of Spanish colonial rule of hundreds of years. It was the original capital city. This was where commerce, education, government and religion were centered. Inside Intramuros were Roman Catholic churches, like the Manila Cathedral and the San Agustin Church; convents and church-run schools like the Universidad de Santo Tomas, the Colegio de San Juan de Letran and the Ateneo Municipal de Manila. It was also the center of intensive and extensive trading during the days of the Parian. Here, Chinese traders aboard junks (boats) unloaded different commodities.
