District in Manila.
San Nicolas was originally a fishing town named Baybay, which is also a Tagalog word for shore.[3][4] It was renamed to San Nicolas, after the patron saint of sailors, boatmen, and mariners.[5] San Nicolas is the western part of the first Chinatown in the Philippines, and perhaps the world;[6] the eastern part is Binondo, which was founded in 1594 by Governor-General Luis Pérez Dasmariñas.[6] The Dominican order came to western part of Chinatown in 1596[6] and then founded San Nicolas in 1598.[3] This was the first mission by the Dominicans outside Intramuros.[3]
