Baclaran, my place
Barangay Baclaran is noted for the Wednesday Novenas at the shrine of Our Mother of Perpetual Help National Shrine of the Redemptorist Church. Every Wednesday more or less 10,000 people from all walks of life converge at the church to attend the novena. It is without argument the most attended church in Asia. Many known celebrities who are devotees to Our Lady of Perpetual Help do come at Tuesdays nights to avoid people. Many people mistaken Baclaran as part of Pasay, it is actually part of Paranaque.
Traffic is normal on Wednesdays especially on first Wednesdays of the month. Baclaran is a major transportation hub, with many buses and jeepneys terminating here. Light Rail Transit (LRT) ends in Baclaran while its a ride away from Metro Rail Transit (MRT). There are also a lot of pedicabs around. Shuttle ride to SM Mall Of Asia is just a stone away from the Church, the terminal is at the corner of Roxas Boulevard and Redemptorist Road.
Baclaran is also known as a bargain center throughout the world due to the amazing discounts shoppers enjoy at its dry goods markets. Its imposible that you cannot find the goods you’re looking for. Before I forget, “Pakyawan Sa Wilmart” will be having their sale on October 15, Monday. They’ll be selling all items at wholesale price. Their goods are incredibly cheap, some vendors bought items here and resell them. It is located in front of Iglesia ni Cristo.
There are a lot of known fast food chains in Baclaran especially around 
the church. Bibingka and puto bumbong is possible every Wednesdays all year round, you can find them along the street at the back of Berma Shopping Center. Don’t forget to ask for your free hot tea for every order of puto bumbong. Since MMDA is always around, you can also find the best buys in this street.
