MANILA, Philippines — The Manila city government is inviting the public to visit Mehan Garden, which has been turned into a Valentine’s Day themed park.
The “MayniLOVE” event at Mehan Garden will last until Feb. 17 and is open from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m.
The city’s Bureau of Permits holds the event to support small and medium enterprises, which set up stalls in the area for only P40.
The city opened Mehan Garden for Valentine dates just as a global word analysis from Crossword Solver named Manila as the “most loving capital city in the world.”
Manila residents apparently had a lot of love to express, based on the site’s analysis of geotagged tweets in capital cities that contained variations of the phrase “I love you” and those that contained the heart emoji.
