MANILA, Philippines - Manila is one of the best places in the world to try your luck and splash your cash, according to an online travel company.
Expedia Australia said the Philippines' sprawling capital is one of the world's top gaming destinations not only for its favorable exchange rate and world-class casinos, but also for its wide range of shopping and entertainment options.
