We Are Intramuros Episode 11: Intramuros as a Creative Urban Heritage City

Intramuros has been a venue for various events and activities that are artistic in nature and with innate cultural value. Creativity is the primary ingredient in all of these pursuits to revive the artistic spirit of the Walled City. After all, Intramuros is the soul of the country, a place where education, religion, tradition, art, and culture have been nurtured through the centuries.

Paolo Mercado, founder and president of the Creative Economy Council of the Philippines, looks forward to a lifelong partnership with Intramuros to give public and private industries a place in the Walled City—a space where they can grow and at the same time contribute to its development as a cultural hub.
