Why Can't EVERY City in the Philippines Have Parks Like Makati? 🇵🇭

Описание: Is Jaime C. Velasquez Park the blueprint for the perfect Filipino city? 🌿🇵🇭

In this video, we’re exploring the heart of Salcedo Village, Makati, to visit one of the most successful public spaces in the country: Jaime C. Velasquez Park (also known as Salcedo Park).

While most of Metro Manila is a "concrete jungle" of traffic and malls, this park offers a rare glimpse of what our cities could look like. It’s clean, walkable, shaded by old trees, and home to the famous Salcedo Weekend Market. But it raises a frustrating question: Why is this the exception and not the rule?

If you’ve ever wished your neighborhood had a place to jog, sit under a tree, or visit a community market, this video is for you.

📍 Location Spotlight:

Jaime C. Velasquez Park (Salcedo Park), Tordesillas St, Salcedo Village, Makati.
Home of the Salcedo Weekend Market (Saturdays, 7:00 AM - 2:00 PM).
