Jones Bridge Weekly Lights and Sounds Show to Enchant Manila
The Jones Bridge weekly lights and sounds show will begin enchanting visitors starting Saturday, June 7. This exciting feature is part of the ongoing efforts to revitalize the Pasig River, a key initiative under the “Pasig Bigyang Buhay Muli” (Revive Pasig) project. This flagship program, led by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s administration, aims to restore the vibrancy of one of Metro Manila’s most iconic waterways.
Enhancing Public Spaces Along Pasig River
According to local officials, the third phase of the project continues to improve accessibility along the riverside. The Pasig River Esplanade is expanding to offer more room for walking, biking, and sightseeing. The Jones Bridge weekly lights and sounds show promises to become a highlight, attracting both Manila residents and tourists looking to experience the city’s renewed nighttime charm.
The colorful illumination will showcase the bridge’s historic architecture and cultural significance, transforming it into a dynamic landmark every weekend. The initiative, which connects the historic districts of Intramuros and Binondo, is being implemented in partnership with the Federation of Filipino Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (FFCCCII).
Symbol of Manila’s Urban Renewal
As the city continues its urban transformation, local leaders note that the Jones Bridge weekly lights and sounds show symbolizes Manila’s commitment to blending heritage preservation with modern development. The project not only revitalizes the river but also breathes new life into the surrounding communities, making the cityscape more inviting and vibrant.
This new attraction reflects a broader vision of sustainable urban growth, where cultural landmarks are celebrated alongside contemporary infrastructure improvements. For more news and updates on Pasig River revitalization, visit Filipinokami.com.
