E-mail and texting has overtaken snail mail as the main form of correspondence between people. That…read moredoesn't mean that people no longer write to each other using letters. This building is the central building for the country's mail sorting and distribution process. I pass by this mammoth of a structure each time I go to school or head home. It's a wonderful thing to behold. Few government buildings are as imposing and big as the Manila Central Post Office. Indeed, when I look at this structure I often wonder to myself why the country isn't littered with more structures like it. It's neoclassical structure is like a breath of fresh air compared to most of the box like buildings that I see populating Manila's streets. I love this building because it reminds me that there are hidden architectural gems in Manila that will stand out and make me look twice each time I cross the street or look around the corner.

The Manila Central Post Office never fails to move me and make me sad at the same time. It is…read moreeasily the most iconic and impressive building in Manila, and it is almost palatial. Seriously, looking at the Post Office loom over you as you cross the river is an arresting and breathtaking sight. However, all that majesty cannot hide the fact that the Post Office is in decay and needs all the help it can get. I'm hoping some group comes in and restores it for future use, because Philpost simply cannot take care of this magnificent structure anymore. There were talks that the Post Office was going to be converted into a hotel, although it appears talks have fallen through. I don't mind this turning into a heritage museum or something. Anything, really. Just save this gorgeous building, please!

Dont publish your phone numbers if you are not going to answer calls!!! Does the mayor of this city even know what's going on with his jurisdiction? I wonder.

A post office means a lot of things to a lot of people, particularly in this day and age of…read moreinternet and technology. For some younger generations, it may seem like the type of obsolete system that should have died out long ago. For older generations or those far apart, it is a way by which one can send sweet, heartfelt, and handwritten messages to their loved ones. While the Marikina Post Office is a small place with a few stations, it is efficiently run by the few people there, cleanly able to efficiently help one out when sending a domestic or international message, postcard, or letter. Call me old-fashioned, but I am a "suki" of the Marikina Post Office. Thus, I can attest that this post office is reliable. Not once did any of my letters or postcards get lost in transit. Never did any of the letters of my friends or relatives from oversees fail to reach me. While most people are cautious about trusting their local post office, I never had a reason to worry. Sending my mails via the Marikina Post Office, I can relax knowing that my letters and postcards will reach my faraway relatives and friends on time. Truly, it is a wonder that so small a place can be a gateway to so many a distant land, and that I know that somewhere, somehow, my sweet, thoughtful messages written on paper is making a relative or a friend smile on the other side of the planet.
