STREET SCENES IN MANILA

STREET SCENES IN MANILA
Photographs by David Bacon - 8/31/19



These photographs were taken on the streets of Manila in Ermita, Intramuros and around Rizal Park.  People live in the street in Manila much more than in the U.S. - it's more like a city in Mexico, for instance.  Some images show the recruitment of sailors in a shape up next to the park - Filipinos make up a larger percentage of ocean-going sailors than any other nationality.  Others show workers laying bricks, or driving jeepneys and pedicabs.  People go to church, which is sometimes in the street as well.
