7 Introduction Your Guide to the City Remedios Circle Locale Manila s first issue of the year is about Remedios Circle known as Malate Cemetery during the Spanish era, it was converted into a traffic circle that serves as a meeting point for the streets of Bocobo, Adriatico and Remedios. The latter street and the traffic circle were named after the patroness of the neighboring church, the beautiful Baroque-style Malate Church. Designed by Architect Carlos Arguelles, the circle and the area surrounding it were heavily damaged during World War II in the Battle of Manila. After the war, the site was demolished and the exhumed bodies were moved to the Manila South Cemetery. It is said that Remedios Circle, along with Paco Park, were both embedded in the master plan for the capital city which was prepared by the urban planner Daniel Burnham. Slowly, the districts of Malate and Ermita were rebuilt, but failed to keep up with the changing times as residents of the area relocated to other cities. Crimes and prostitution was attached to the name of the place, thus those who visited Manila shunned the Remedios district. The place grew organically in the 80 s when Café Adriatico was opened by Mr. Larry Cruz. Other businesses followed suit, transforming Remedios, Adriatico and Nakpil into a bohemian district popular for its unique nightlife, offbeat restaurants and particularly LGBT-friendly happenings.

Renovated and re-opened in 2016 with a funding of 1.5 million pesos, the circle is now a charming open space with a 20-foot high multi-colored dancing fountain that adds up to the gradual upswing of the Malate-Ermita area. Have you watched the blockbuster movie The Bourne Legacy? Remedios Circle was included in a scene of the Jeremy Renner and Rachel Weisz hit action film. Bringing back the old glory of Manila doesn t only rest on the local government officials. As a consumer and a traveler, there are new spots to try and old venues to rediscover in and around Remedios, while respecting the history and culture of old Malate. Who knows, you might stumble upon an old friend, who like you is enjoying the vibrance of the updated nooks and crannies of Remedios Circle and the streets around it. The rebirth of Manila may well start in Remedios. Come and have fun with your friends and family and see why this is the epicenter of Ermita.

8 our Roots Formally known as Plaza de la Virgen de los Remedios, Remedios Circle is a rotunda in the district of Malate, Manila. The street and the site where the circle stands now used to be burial grounds known as Malate Cemetery during the Spanish era and was named after the patroness of Malate Church, Nuestra Señora de los Remedios or Our lady of Remedies. Remedios Circle s significance dates back to the colonial era, along with Carriedo Fountain located in Plaza Sta. Cruz, as they were the two earliest traffic circles built in the capital city. The area was originally a residential district where Manila s affluent families used to reside, but after World War II, the place started to fall into a slump. It was a good thing that in 1980, Larry Cruz, a journalist turned restaurateur, opened Café Adriatico at the corner of Adriatico and Remedios Streets. Café Adriatico made an impact as a good place to hang out with family and friends, offering delicious Spanish-Mediterranean dishes and thus, drawing other businessmen to follow suit. The place slowly swelled into a well-known nightlife destination. For foreigners, Malate is more colorful and adventurous. It has its own vibe, sounds and character. Adriatico Street is the front-runner when one talks about Malate. Previously known as Dakota Avenue, Adriatico Street was renamed after Macario Adriatico in 1964, a Filipino author of Manila s city charter. The street is known for the motley of restaurants, cafes, bars and hostels catering to different types of Manilabound travelers and attracting bohemian crowds: artists, painters, writers, musicians, designers and offbeat travelers. Some describe this type of crowds as culture addicts - - the kind that dig into the vibe and the atmosphere of a certain locale, and Adriatico, up to now, certainly lives up to expectations. The long-standing success of Café Adriatico, Malate Pensionne, and other establishments in Adriatico that make up the busy and the unpretentious street is a breathing nostalgia of old Manila where it used to be the place to be and be seen. With the renovation of Remedios Circle and the restoration of its fountain, the place was given a new lease of life. Hopefully, with the influx of retail businesses and residential areas, Adriatico and the entire Malate district would see its golden days again.
