Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum
1 saveRecommendation by Lemi
Ghostly shadows are a usual sight at Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum. The mental hospital was designed to fit only 250 people but in the 1950s, 2,500 patients crowded the rooms. Some of them were even forced to stay in cages! Many convalescents were also given inhumane treatments like electroshock therapy and lobotomy. Go on a day tour to learn about the facility's history; or, search for ghouls in the night on a ghost hunt! Check out their website for special events (such as their Halloween Haunted House) before you visit.

Intramuros
Without having to drive far, Intramuros allows you to enjoy yourself in a rich history hidden behind huge walls and cobblestone street that have been destroyed, preserved, and rebuilt many times. By visiting Bahay Tsinoy, Casa Manila, or the Distileria Limtuaco Museum, the country's oldest distillery, you may find yourself in the tactile traces of diverse cultures that influenced Intramuros, such as American, Spanish, and Chinese.
