(SPOT.ph) With vaccination efforts now underway and reported COVID-19 cases declining, Metro Manila is now reopening most establishments to the public. Intramuros, which is a historic and cultural complex of indoor and outdoor attractions, also started receiving guests--with extra perks for the fully vaccinated. Entrance to Fort Santiago is free of charge from November 15 to 30 as long as you received your complete dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Plus, you can also receive a cool Intramuros-themed Beep Card when you're one of the first 50 visitors of Baluarte San Diego and Casa Manila Museum for the day.
