What an amazing place to visit and honor the lives of those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. It was impossible for me to walk these grounds without feeling humbled and full of gratitude. It truly is a remarkable sight. The grounds are cared for impeccably, the murals and maps are beautiful, and there is so much information to learn about World War II battles in the Far East. I highly recommend a stop here if you are visiting Manila.

American soldiers who died during world war ii are buried here. Vast open space with beautiful green landscape and lots of big trees. The place is really quite and peaceful away from the busy city. At the center of the plot, there's a higher ground with an alter at the center and walled monuments in circle. Some of the important historic events are mapped inside the walls of the monument. The names of the soldiers are engraved on the walls and also on the gravestones. There's a museum and Visitor center also which is not open to the public as of now. Good ambience to spend some time with family and friends and to take a look back in to the history. Most of all, the place doesn't give you a feel of cemetery, it's just refreshing to be here. Good place for jogging and walks. No food is allowed inside. The place is thoroughly maintained. Id of anyone in the group has to be shown to the securities. ♿✔️Entrance is Wheelchair accessible but not the center high ground. The guards are really friendly and accommodating. Taking photos and videos are allowed always remember it's a cemetery.

Nice way to spend an afternoon if in the BGC area. Interesting to learn more about our shared history with the US. Should treat the place with respect - it is a cemetery after all. Wear appropriate attire when visiting and leave your pets at home - they are not allowed.

(Translated by Google) I'm in the Philippines, but this place is an American territory (Original) 身處菲律賓，但此地卻是美國屬地喔

This place is of the best in the world for reflection and appreciation. This is the largest cemetery in the world for US WWII personal and the largest US war cemetery outside the USA. Exceptionally maintained and beautifully landscaped. Would recommend for those looking to reflect and get a small break from the city.

Such a humble emotional experience. The grounds are beautiful. This memorial makes me proud to be an American. The sacrifice the Fillipino and American soldiers made during WW2 is awe-inspiring. All gave some, some gave all...... God bless the U.S.A. and Philippines. If you're woke and want socialism I encourage you to visit a war memorial. Specifically a WW2 memorial. Maybe then you'll understand true sacrifice and what a legitimate fascist is. The U.S. is far from perfect. But realize the problem is corrupt politicians and corporations. United, we stand. Divided, we fall.

Breathtaking. I am honored to have had the privilege of visiting. The experience was superb and the tour guide provided additional information that really spoke to the greatest generation and their sacrifices. If you ever visit the Philippines, I believe this cemetery is one of those locations you must stop by to see.

Our first day out in the field our Mission President took us here, upon arrival he told us of those who had fought and died with honour. He later gave us time to reflect on our life before the mission, who we want to be in the mission and what kind of person we want to become after. On our last day, he took us back and told us to pray to our Father to accept our Missionary service as a sign of our love. I have so much respect for those who fought to make the Philippines a country of freedom to worship. I wouldn’t have served there if it weren’t for them and those who continue to battle in the Lords Vineyard 💓💓 Woke up missing the work 😩💓 #LastDayInTheMission #MemorialReflections

(Translated by Google) ✝️🇺🇸🇵🇭 ... it's a touching place. An endless expanse of crosses and names. It is one of my favorite places in Manila. There is peace in this cemetery, order and peace, things you won't find anywhere else in Manila. Furthermore, let's not forget the sacrifice of many young people to have the world as we know it today. In the background the rich palaces of Bonifacio Global City. Government-run place, extremely well-kept. (Original) ✝️🇺🇸🇵🇭...é un posto toccante. Una sterminata distesa di croci e nomi. É uno dei miei posti del cuore a Manila. C'é pace in questo cimitero, ordine e pace, cose che non troverete in nessun'altra parte di Manila. Inoltre non dimentichiamo il sacrificio di tantissimi ragazzi per avere il mondo come lo conosciamo oggi. Sullo sfondo i ricchi palazzi di Bonifacio Global City. Posto gestito dal governo americano, estremamente curato.

Free Entry Museum and Memorial. Great tribute to the soldiers who fought to keep the freedom of the Philippines. Extremely pristine and well kept, very beautiful and peaceful place to visit. They have a new museum installation thats has a theatre that tells the story of what happened. Definitely worth a visit

Free of charge for the museum. You must not bring any food or drink inside. The museum has well organized, and it is a peaceful place to visit and learn the effect of the war. Suitable for the family and good for the children to walk around the park. Recommend for taking American or veteran to visit this place.

Closed until further notice due to the pandemic?? One of the most open and spacious areas in Manila...CLOSED, due to COVID. And the shopping malls are packed! And no notice anywhere online that this place is closed until further notice. Folks, this is about the SAFEST place you could open during the pandemic. Really sad...

I love to visit this place with its well maintained lawns, trees, shrubberies, and its building is with a high quality finishings. I have learned and realized how the American Government helped our nation liberated from the enemies. It is also amazing that they already have their Museum which started 2019 which is very educational and can learn from the displays and I love how they put up the audio visual materials to educate everyone who wants to visit this beautiful place. I felt so overwhelmed how those fallen soldiers have sacrifice their lives for us. I say, Thank you very much.

This cemetery is a very moving setting and tribute to American soldiers, sailors, marines, Coast Guard, and Philippine Scouts who gave their lives throughout the Pacific Theater in World War II. Our free guide was Julie, a staff member at the American Cemetery. She was deeply knowledgeable about World War II and so polite and very friendly. The museum at the Cemetery is excellent and thorough. I am a history professor, and I learned a lot from Julie and the museum exhibits. As with all American military cemeteries, there are no entrance fees to visit the cemetery and museum. I highly recommend a visit to these beautiful sacred grounds.

One of prominent site in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City. Well known for its burial place of the militaries who died during the World War II. The site is very vast and has a beautiful landscape. The management has maintain its cleanliness.

One of the most serene spaces in BGC honoring those who fought in the war. I'd say that the Manila American Cemetery is more serene than the Arlington memorial. They are open to visitors but just take note of the holidays. If you want some quite time in the metro, take time to visit this memorial.

This cemetery was nicely designed with a museum and free tour sharing the World War Two stories. Worth visiting if you want to learn more about the Philippines’s history.

Free to enter, just present an valid ID. Peacefull place. Lots of historical memorabilias

I visited this place because it was in the vicinity of BGC where I was staying during my official abroad trip. It's a large piece of land with well marked pathways and graves all around. All the soldiers that died during 2nd world war are buried there. It had a central seating area as well in the form of a small amphitheatre which is usually used as a photo taking place for people. Whole of the ground that's not concrete is lush green and that's what makes this area so serene, but it's still a graveyard. A sanctum built with so many graves that highlight that war affects an individual more than it affects the country. Peace came at a price. May God give them rest in peace. Hope it helps!

Spotless, manicured, peaceful, emotional....an unexpected place in busy Manila....17000 tombs of soldiers, American and Filipino, some with a cross, some with a David star, some with a name, some without....no matter what political side you defend, the story of these guys, who died far away from their motherland, just to obey orders, and just because it's war....is wrenching...there are not so many beautiful places in Manila, and this one is truly beautiful. And Calm.

This place is a solemn, gorgeous reminder of the Americans and Filipinos who lose their lives during WW2 fighting for freedom. The new visitor center is an amazing add-on. You could spend all your time in the visitor center--it's that good.

Decades ago, I’ve brought my children here for them to understand and appreciate the hardships that the Filipinos and Americans had to endure for us to have the freedom we are enjoying now. Returning once again in this place has given me a deeper meaning of the sacrifices and lives that those heroes has given up. As I sat there watching the short film and the narrative of how it has been during the war gives me goosebumps. Some of those foreigners watching both Japanese and Americans were crying just watching the destruction of lives and properties because of the war. And this place is a memorial honouring those who has served well. Can’t help but had an overwhelming warmth inside my heart knowing that at one time Filipinos stood side by side with the Americans in fighting for our freedom. A big snappy salute to all the soldiers.

Well maintained place. Largest American soldiers Cemetery outside USA. Free entrance. Open 7 days a week except holidays.

The Manila American cemetery and memorial is an absolutely must see if you are in Manila. Beautiful tribute to American soldiers who lost their lives in world war ll. There are over 17,000 white crosses. The lawns are beautifully manicured.

One of best place for contemplating in Manila. You just need to show your passport / id card to enter this place. At the end of the closing time there are flag lowering ceremony. Recommended to visit 👍🏼

I had a unique and memorable experience at the Manila American Cemetery and Memorial, situated right in the heart of the BGC area. This hidden gem, often less explored, made my visit all the more special, thanks to the pleasant weather, mild cool breeze, and overcast skies (humidity aside). The meticulous documentation of World War II and the vital roles played by both America and the Philippines truly impressed me. The detailed accounts of those who served during the war provided a deep insight into history. Moreover, the property is exceptionally well maintained, adding to the overall experience. Visiting this memorial was a departure from the usual tourist spots and offered me a different perspective on history.

(Translated by Google) Quiet and green, you can stroll all day. (Original) 寧靜而翠綠, 這裡可以漫步一整天.

A beautifully manicured cemetery in Taguig for soldiers killed in WW2. This place is easily accessible from EDSA, a major thoroughfare that connects the north and south of Metro Manila. It is also adjacent to the BGC or the the Bonifacio Global City which is very popular nowadays for its modern buildings and developments. With a total of 17,206 graves, the cemetery has the largest number of graves of any cemetery for U.S. personnel as well as other soldiers from Allied countries killed during World War II.

Very good place. Have some fantastic trip.

(Translated by Google) There are Chinese soldiers in the US military. Some soldiers are lucky. After the name is engraved, they find that he still survives. Learning a new knowledge, Vietnam was called indo CHINA during World War II. (Original) 美军中有中国籍的士兵，有些士兵比较幸运，名字刻上去后又发现他还幸存。学习了一个新知识，越南在二战时叫indo CHINA.

May 25 is a memorial day here in the US. Honoring all American soldiers. Thank you for their indefinable service. God bless America.

Definitely one of the best places to visit in Manila. Its open to the public and its for free. Such a peaceful and serene place to commemorate who made such huge sacrifices during the war.

Arrived here 30mins before it closes. They're open from 9am to 5pm, 7days a week. This is, hands down, the best cemetery that I have ever visited. Well taken care of and very very very clean. It's free to visit the cemetery as long as you don't bring a pet. You can't go strolling around in your vehicle. You have to walk yourself around. The museum was very nice. I wish we can also have the museum in Libingan ng mga bayani.

The place is nice to visit. It is also clean and well cared.. would love to visit here again

this memorial place is beautifully built. The ambiance is so peaceful. worth to visit while in BGC

This solemn place is beyond incredible! Beautiful 360 degree wall of MIA soldiers contains the engraved names of 36,000+ Filipinos and Americans lost in WW2. Excellent maps of all Pacific battles. Museum includes many informative exhibits and a wonderful film. The best part though was the complimentary personalized tour from our guide Julie Hilaga. Ms. Hilaga enthusiastically went out of her way to answer our endless questions. I could not believe that entrance was free of charge. My wife and I just had to show proof of vaccination and our IDs. Free parking is also available. What an amazing experience!!!

I went to visit the Manila’s American War Cemetery today to pay respect ... however understandable this sacred land is closed still ( for now ) during the Coronavirus restrictions So I took these photos from outside the fence ... plus 2 photos from when I was landing into Manila 2 weeks ago Last time I visited this War Cemetery was around 20 years ago

(Translated by Google) It’s worth taking a walk. The guards are very strict and carry photo IDs. (Original) 值得來走走，警衛檢查很嚴格，要攜帶有照片的證件

(Translated by Google) As the world's largest memorial to the World War II Pacific battlefield cemetery, it is deeply imprinted on the map of Manila, which is three times larger than the Normandy World War II cemetery but far less famous. Visit here at noon and the temperature is close to 30 degrees. A worker is cleaning up the tombstone under the scorching sun. She wrapped her head in a T-shirt to cool down, which was a bit weird. The cleaner said that every three months should be used to carefully wipe each tombstone with a tool like this. I asked her if there is a body under the tombstone? She shook her head and said that these crosses were only monuments, but each of the above names belonged to a soldier who died on the Pacific battlefield. The memorial cemetery has been a free and open "theme park" since the day it was built. In the horseshoe-shaped corridor, the floor is the state emblem of the 50 states that make up the United States. The walls are engraved with the names of the fallen officers and soldiers. It is not so much a cemetery as it is called a park, that is, it has a historical commemorative significance. At the same time, a large expanse of lawns is very open, and many local people will take their children to take a walk. (Original) 作为世界上最大的纪念第二次世界大战太平洋战场公墓就深深烙印在马尼拉的地图上，它的面积比诺曼底二战公墓要大上三倍却远没有那么出名。参观这里正午气温接近30度。一名工人正在烈日下清理墓碑，她把头裹在一件T恤里用来降温，样子有些怪异。清洁工说，每三个月都要像这样用工具仔细擦拭每一块墓碑。我问她墓碑下面有尸体吗？她摇摇头说这些十字架仅仅是纪念碑，但上面的每个名字都属于一位在太平洋战场上牺牲的官兵。这座纪念公墓从建成的那天起就成为了一座免费开放的“主题公园”，马蹄形的走廊里，地板上是组成美国的50个州的州徽，墙壁上则刻满了阵亡官兵的姓名。与其说是公墓不如叫它公园，即有历史纪念意义同时大片大片的草坪视野十分开阔，很多当地人会带着小孩来这里散步。

Beautiful memorial

(Translated by Google) I went on a city tour. If you go by yourself, you can only take a rental car or a taxi from Ayara Station on the elevated line LINE3, but it is a neat and clean cemetery. It is worth a look. Free country name at the entrance? You will be asked. The murals, which explain the attack and defense of the Pacific War, and the names of American soldiers who died in the Philippine front are written on the wall. Is it larger than the Peace Memorial Park in Okinawa? Isn't it? The lawn is well maintained and is very beautiful, and you can see the city of Manila because it is on a hill. There are an increasing number of people who don't know the war, but Japan has attacked and controlled such a place ... (Original) 市内ツアーで行きました。自分で行くならレンタカーか高架線LINE３のアラヤ駅からタクシーなどで行く以外ないですが整然とした綺麗な墓地です。一見の価値はあります。無料ですが、入り口で国名？などを聞かれます。太平洋戦争の攻防を図式化して説明された壁画とフィリッピン戦線で亡くなったアメリカ兵の名前が壁一面に書かれています。沖縄の平和記念公園以上の広さを誇る？のではないでしょうか。芝生も手入れされ非常に綺麗ですし、高台にあるのでマニラ市内が見渡せます。 戦争を知らない人が増えていますが、日本はこんなところまで攻めて来て支配したんですね‥

A wonderfully created place to honour the past. It brings an incredible sense of weight to the soul and a tangible hint at the magnitude of the conflict, sacrifice, and loss.

May you rest in peace, soldiers of the Philippines and the USA. We will not forget your fight and what you protected.

One of the most beautiful cemeteries I have been to. It is the resting place of WWII American soldiers who died in the war.

Admission is free of charge. All you need is an ID to identify yourself at the entrance gate. The grounds are in a wonderful and beautiful condition. A complete tour takes about 30-90 minutes, depending on your pace.

makes an impression. very large area, quiet, peaceful, interestingly described piece of history of the Second World War.

I travel to the Philippines for business and like visiting places like this just like The Punchbowl Memorial in Hawaii. Very quiet and beautiful. It is very humbling walking through the rows of crosses and reading the names and ages of the fallen servicemen who paid the ultimate price.

Cemetery was opened in December 1960. It covers huge area (152 acres) and includes the graves, the Wall of Missing (more than 32K of missing in action), the Memorial, the Chapel , the Altar, visitors building. The burial plots are arranged in concentric rings around the memorial. There are more than 17K headstones. In 4 rooms bordering the walls there are ten-foot-high mosaic maps of crucial campaigns during World War II in the Pacific. The places is open from 9 am to 5 pm. Entrance, only one from the roundabout next to Arya Building, is free. There is not much shadow in the cemetery, so it is advisable to visit on a cloudy day or in the morning on a sunny day. Highly recommended.

Beautiful, peaceful, quiet.

A amazing and humbling place as a U.S. Army Veteran these sacred grounds is just an experience our younger generation should experience.

Excellent place to visit and connect with a very important part of world history. The American War Memorial organisation has done an outstanding job in the design and curation.

This is a very beautiful and well maintained facility. You can learn a lot about American and Filipino history at the museum. The grounds and memorial structures are expansive and impressive.

Place is solemn and well maintained. You can learn the history of world war 2.

Beautiful and serene place to pay our respects. I recommend bringing an umbrella because it can get pretty hot on sunny days and also to use in case it rains.

(Translated by Google) It's free and should definitely be visited. There is also a tomb and a schematic drawing of WWII spreading over a vast site. It was a sense of getting out of Manila (Original) 無料なので是非訪れるべきですね。広大な敷地に広がるお墓とWWIIの略図なんかもあります。マニラから抜け出した感覚でした

A wonderful place

A must visit for anyone and a special place for me and my wife as we visited in 2016.

(Translated by Google) So beautiful! You can stay here for one afternoon without problems! (Original) 太美了！可以在這裡待一個下午都沒問題！

(Translated by Google) This is a memorial park to remember the people who died in the Second World War. Their names are permanently carved on the memorial wall. The war has ended for many and many years. We can't forget them. For the sake of world peace, they are far from home to come to Asia to fight evil. There are American soldiers and Filipinos from other US troops and people from other countries. I also saw the name of a Chinese chef. (Original) 这里是缅怀美军部队二战中牺牲的人们的纪念园区，他们的名字永久地雕刻在纪念墙上，战争结束了很多很多年我们不能忘记他们，为了世界和平他们远离故土来到亚洲向邪恶开战。 这里有美国军人还有参加美国部队的菲律宾人和其他国家的人，我还看到了一名中国籍厨师的名字。

don't forget ur history. u should check the maps of japan wars. the sea between korea and japan. "sea of japan" is wrong. "east sea" is right. plz remember! its already got real history!

At the heart of BGC, the war memorial and American cemetery is a vast open space with carefully maintained lush green ground, and a simple, but elegant and informative monument at the center. Grayline half day historic Manila tour’s first stop is here. The quiet surrounding in the middle of very busy business district is absolutely peaceful. The tourists center is under construction now, but I was told that it’ll open shortly. You can chose to spend some moments amidst the nature and reflect.

(Translated by Google) Large space devoted to memorial of soldiers, very solemn, clean and beautiful. One advice is that you should come early to have more time to visit. because this place is closed at 5pm. (Original) không gian rộng lớn dành để tưởng niệm các chiến sĩ, rất trang nghiêm, sạch sẽ và đẹp. một lời khuyên là các bạn nên đến sớm để có nhiều thời gian tham quan hơn. vì nơi này đóng cửa vào lúc 5h chiều.

An integral part of history

Beautifully kept gardens and surroundings.

A tranquil and beautifully kept memorial.

The ambiance is so peaceful. Its beautiful place to visit.

Historical place

(Translated by Google) A beautiful place. There is a parking lot and a museum if you go further by car, you can enter for free. Well-maintained lawn, orderly arranged crosses ... I want you to visit it by all means. (Original) 美しい場所です。 車で奥に進むと駐車場と資料館があり、無料で入場できます。 整備された芝生、整然と並んだ十字架… 是非一度は訪れて頂きたいです。

Love the serene ambiance of this memorial park. I paid a visit there and its great thing that they opened a musuem narrating the stories of 2nd World War and how the Americans and Filipinos fought together for indendepence and peace. What disappoints me are the guards who are rude to Filipinos but very friendly and welcoming to foreign guests.

Beautiful setting in the middle of the city. Nice museum in the back.

Largest American cemetery in the world - memorial of 153 acres, 17097 headstones, 36287 names of soldiers missing in action. From World War II

Impressive cemetery/ memorial. Need an ID to enter (or at least person in the group).
