Philippines / Metro Manila / Sightseeing / Hobbit House

The Hobbit House, 1801 Mabini St, near Malate Church, is an attraction by itself. It is a folk music house almost completely run by lilliputians. But not only for this curiosity, the Hobbit House is worth a visit.

Also there, the world famous Philippine folk singer Freddie Aguilar performs twice a week, usually including Saturdays, and he has done for the past ten years. However, he is not the only singer who regularly performs there. There are also Jazz and other folk musicians, showing their genius or talent, respectively. Among them is Egoy, physically the smallest, but musically one of the greatest Elvis imitators.

The Hobbit House opens every day around 19:00. There is a entertainment charge which depends mainly on the fame of the per-former for that evening.
