kilometer zero

kilometer zero

did you know that all points of destination in the philippines are measured from this kilometer zero marker in manila's rizal park? for instance, baguio city would be 330 km. north from here. you can see this marker across from rizal's monument and right in front of the big bulova clock, close to the carabao statues.

fortuitous faery indulged in a self-portrait at the shiny orb on top of the marker after taking miss iggy's photo. [circa december 2008]
