EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the Lower Pasig River in Manila, Philippines, circa 1920. The serene waters reflect the vibrant cityscape, dotted with colonial-era buildings and structures that once defined the Eastern Pacific metropolis. In the foreground, traditional inter-island boats gracefully bob on the water, their sails furled and anchors secured to the quay. The boats, a common sight in the Philippines during the 1920s, were essential for transporting people and goods between the islands that make up this archipelago nation. The quayside, bustling with activity, is lined with various ships and larger vessels, their masts and rigging creating a picturesque tableau against the backdrop of the city. The chain link anchors, a testament to the importance of maritime trade, add an intriguing element to the scene. Despite the hustle and bustle, the Lower Pasig River remains a tranquil oasis amidst the urban landscape. The calm waters, reflecting the rich history and cultural heritage of Manila, offer a glimpse into the past, inviting us to imagine the stories and memories that unfolded along its shores.
