Manila

Is very westernized. American items are the same price as over here in the states. For example a cup of coffee at Starbucks is around $2.40. My advice is to not shop at any American shops. That is very hard to do.

This is a bit hard to explain, but Manila is called Metro Manila. It includes The City of Manila, Quezon City, and many more neighboring cities. Quezon City is the largest at 3 million people. The total population of Metro Manila is 12 million people. When people refer to Manila, they have to specify City of Manila or Metro Manila which are two different things.
