Bacoor

One day covers the historic church, Zapote Bridge and the main malls; reach it from Manila in about 15 min by bus or jeepney.

Bacoor is a sprawling suburban city just south of Manila. Its main attractions are the Spanish‑era Bacoor Church, the historic Zapote Bridge, and several large malls. Public transport (jeepney, bus) is cheap and frequent, while private cars face heavy traffic. One full day lets you see the heritage sites in the morning and shop or dine in the afternoon.
