Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car, head towards Metro Manila. Use major highways such as the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) or South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) depending on your starting point. Once in Metro Manila, follow signs leading to Manila City. Use GPS navigation to direct you to Rizal Park located in Ermita, Manila. The exact address is Ermita, Manila, 1000 Metro Manila. Parking is available nearby, but expect to pay a fee that ranges from PHP 20 to PHP 50 for parking.

• Public Transportation - Bus

  For public transport, take a bus bound for Manila from any provincial terminal. Most buses will take you to major bus terminals like Cubao or Pasay. From there, transfer to a jeepney or taxi heading to Ermita. If taking a jeepney, look for those with signs that say 'Ermita' or 'Rizal Park.' This will cost around PHP 10-20. Once you are in Ermita, Rizal Park is a short walk away.

• Public Transportation - LRT

  You can also take the Light Rail Transit (LRT). Depending on your location, head to the nearest LRT station. If you are coming from the north, you can take the LRT Line 2 to Santolan, then transfer to Line 1 at Cubao station. Take the LRT Line 1 towards Baclaran and disembark at the United Nations (UN) Avenue station. From there, it's approximately a 15-minute walk to Rizal Park. The LRT fare ranges from PHP 15 to PHP 30 depending on the distance.
