Enrich Your Visit to Makati by Going on A Journey Through History

Thinking about reserving a room at 24h Apartment Hotel in Makati? You must know that although you will be staying in one of the country's most progressive metropolises, you will still get the chance to have a brush with the Philippines' rich history. This city is not all about money and jobs, and you can prove this by visiting these very interesting attractions that we have included in our list.

Ayala Museum
What could be the most sophisticated and extensive repository of artifacts that represent the nation's culture and arts, Ayala Museum is located at the intersection of Makati Avenue and De la Rosa Street. It was built in 1967 and now houses 6 permanent exhibitions. Among the most acclaimed collections here displays 60 handcrafted dioramas that depict specific points in Philippine history. If you would like to view a vast array of age-old chinaware that traces the commercial ties between China and the rest of Southeast Asia, you will also find this gallery here.

Church of Saints Peter and Paul
Constructed in 1620, Church of Saints Peter and Paul is known as the first and oldest operational church in the city. It is also considered as one of the best preserved Spanish architecture pieces in northern Philippines. During your visit, you can attend mass or simply look around to admire the impressive mix of intricacy and simplicity in the building's design. From your accommodation in Makati, you only have to go to Barangay Poblacion to reach the address of this famous landmark.

Filipinas Heritage Library
Do you want to have the chance to access over 13,000 titles that cover various subjects, such as the country's history, languages, social sciences, and arts? Then head over to Filipinas Heritage Library. Located right inside the historic Nielson Tower, the Philippines' first commercial airport, this attraction also uses state-of-the-art information technologies, so going through their collections will be easy.

Guadalupe Ruins
Truly a classic example of Doric architecture, Makati's old church known as Guadalupe Ruins will let you take a peek into history to some 400 years ago. It stands along Bernardino Street in Guadalupe Viejo, and Augustinian friars built it in 1629 and named it Nuestra SeƱora de Gracia Church. Once you set foot in this landmark, you will find the still intact large buttresses that support its vault of hewn stones.

Makati Museum
Already an artifact in itself — because it is almost 100 years old — Makati Museum is where you must go if you want to go as deep into the city's history as possible. Here, you will find archeological and ethnographic pieces that include ancient earthenware and fossils of prehistoric animals. As well, you will get to behold murals, photos, and documents that detail events in the thriving metropolis' rich past. To get to its address from 24h Apartment Hotel, you only have to drive to J. P. Rizal Street in Barangay Poblacion.
