Technically sixteen cities and one municipality make up what is officially known as Metro Manila covering a vast 636 square kilometres One of Manila's greatest natural resources is the protected harbor upon which it sits, regarded as the finest in all of Asia. The Pasig River flows through the middle of the city, dividing it into the north and south. Manila was the capital of the Spanish Philippines for hundreds of years, and became one of the richest cities in the empire.
