Baluarte de San Diego is located at the back of PLM or Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila in Intramuros.
Visitors may enter the garden for a fee of P75.00 for adults and P50.00 for students/child with valid ID
I went there during a function so entrance was free, lol! We'll let's just say I got invited.
I suggest you go there as early as 8 am because they won't allow any visitors anymore starting 12 noon if there's a function, usually wedding receptions.
How to go to Baluarte de San Diego on a budget?
From EDSA...go to Guadalupe (Tulay) Bridge then ride a jeepney with Paco, Taft, Herran signboard. Fare is between P12- P16. Get off at Gen. Luna St. in Paco, Market where there are jeepneys waiting going to Pier. Tell the driver you will be getting off at Round Table. Fare is P8.00.

When you go down at Round Table, you will see the Dept. Of Labor and Employment Building. Go straight along Gen. Luna St.
But for sure, you will be lucky enough to get off the jeepney with some PLM students, just follow them.
When you see the front or the PLM main gate, you may walk towards the left side and you will not miss it.

Too bad, I was not able to go to the upper part of the Baluarte. It is a must see!
I have already seen it before during the 90's but I wanted to have some snapshots of it today.
Well, I'll just visit this place next time.
Thank you for visiting! 'Till next time!
Baluarte de San Diego is a perfect wedding venue for that traditional Filipiniana wedding. This venue is ideal for those who wish to have an outdoor wedding event with a touch of history and Hispanic culture. :)
