After a day being a unpaid employee at a local governing body of a sport, I head on out to Binondo for a long overdue snack that I have been craving for months. Turns out, it wasn't as good as I envisioned it to be. I got disappointed after having a bowl of my favorite Beef Knife Shred Noodles, but it's okay.
When I was having a walk towards the bus stop at Quiapo, I can't help but notice this trend that I've encountered from the last time I took this route. Simply put, it's creepy to walk around the streets of a place where it is very much crowded and noisy by day.
Cases in point: (1) Raon in Manila, (2) Hidalgo, (3) Makati Central Business District [CBD], and (4) Quiapo. Visit these places by day, then stick around until around 10 in the evening to know what I mean.
The idea of a noisy marketplace at night, devoid of the screaming vendors, is just unsettling. Moreover, what kind of denizens would be settling around these places when the sun goes down?
