Binondo, located in the city of Manila, is considered as the oldest Chinatown in the world. This district, which got its name from binundok or mountain, is also one of the extraordinary places to eat around the globe according to National Geographic.  Thus, my friends and I decided to celebrate the eve of Chinese New Year or Spring Festival in Binondo.
