Roxas looks very nice... I think that it is just one of a few of our clean roads...

it is much better when they actually mark the roads, not only in its apparent uses, (lol) but in the actual aesthetics of the city. good, smooth surfaced roads give some tourists in Manila less to complain about u kno
 .. but bad roads are even a problem here in london. i live in an OK middle-class area, but there roads here are very reminiscent of those in Manila! there are very awkward potholes, trash-piles and faded marking ABOUND here!

LOL  The license plate on that VW says Philippines!Why do you guys say it seems like puerto rico, cuba or some carribean island? Is it because the dad on the motorcycle looks hispanic? He could be just a filipino mestizo.

Maybe because of the sea, the coconut trees, and the vintage cars.

like how cuba still uses vintage cars in their streets because of a ban on importation of cars that has been in effect for something like 50 years now.
