Paco Park

About this destination

A circular stone cemetery-turned-park built during the Spanish colonial period, originally used as a burial ground for affluent Manilenos. The park's circular walls are lined with niches that once held remains. Today it serves as a tranquil garden venue for weddings, concerts (Paco Park Presents), and quiet strolls amid centuries-old walls. Jose Rizal's remains were secretly buried here after his execution in 1896.
