I believe we all do have free time. Some people say they like the feeling of working a lot and
feel bored with free time. Other people love to have as much free time
as they can. So, how do you spend your free time?
In my office, I have a lot of free time. Sometimes it seems I don't spend it, I waste it.... I waste it doing "very important" things.
.... like browsing the internet.... and this time I waste it with
Google Map, and I found lots of interesting places.
so, fasten your seat belt and join me on my journey.

Manila City Hall is one of the distinct landmarks in the capital city of Manila. The edifice

with its hexagonal tower with three red-faced clock on three of its
facets, received unfavorable reviews in its initial years because of its
austere architectural design, lack of entrances and the placement of
the clock tower. The building's floor plan had been dismissed as similar in shape to a coffin or, in the other end, like the shield of Knights Templar. (Source:
