Manila Bay's Baywalk coming back to life for holidays  

The Baywalk area in Manila promises to become festive, at least for the coming holidays, with commercial booths being set up there again.

As of Thursday morning, several booths with "Baywalk Festival" signs had been set up in the area, radio dzBB's Glen Juego reported.

Structures were also set up at the Baywalk to accommodate customers, as shown in photos Juego posted on Twitter.

The booths include tiangges (flea markets) and bars, the report added.

But an earlier report indicated the establishments may be only for the holidays, and it is not clear for now if they will remain after the New Year.

Commercial stalls at the Baywalk area flourished under then Mayor Jose Atienza Jr., but were cleared when Alfredo Lim took over. — Joel Locsin/LBG, GMA News
