Spanish Manila was neither the sprawling Metro Manila we know today nor the ���Greater Manila��� of the 1960s. Because during the Spanish period, Manila meant the area enclosed within the walls, or intra-muros. Districts outside, or extra-muros, like Binondo, Tondo, Malate, or Ermita, were suburbs.
