Neo classical

"Neoclassical architecture is characterized by grandeur of scale, simplicity of geometric forms, Greek—especially Doric (see order)—or Roman detail, dramatic use of columns, and a preference for blank walls. The new taste for antique simplicity represented a general reaction to the excesses of the Rococo style."- http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/1383512/Neoclassical-architecture

Characteristics

all of them (well except for the Manila city hall) have the neoclassical  characteristics of having a series of columns, capitals,pediments massive and simple.

these buildings/structures doesnt have aesthetic design instead it is simple and grandeur in its own way. On what Ive read It stated there that Neoclassical buildings doesnt have towers of domes well as you can see on the set of pictures they dont except for the clock tower  on the City hall.

most of these buildings were built after the war and was maintained up to this date. I just hope they continue maintaining it because they are simply a work of art. Something people can look back in to on day.
