Located in the historic center of Ermita, Manila. It is where the Mayor of Manila holds office and the chambers of the Manila City Council. It was originally intended to be a part of a national government center envisioned by Daniel Burnham in the 1930s. Although the dream plan was not fully implemented, some buildings for the proposed government center was constructed, including the Old Legislative Building (now the National Museum of Fine Arts), and the Agriculture and Finance Buildings (presently the National Museum of Anthropology and National Museum of Natural History).

When the clock strikes 6 p.m., you'd better leave Manila City Hall, according to employees. They hear strange noises, whispers and footsteps when night falls. Since it's the city hall is one of the most bombarded cities in the Philippines during World War II, they're not surprised that paranormal beings roam the halls.

A creepy fact: Manila City Hall is shaped like a coffin with a cross on it when viewed from the top.
