Where exactly is it?

Manila's antipode sits at 14.60°S, 59.02°W, in the southern hemisphere, west of Greenwich. That places it in or near the Atlantic Ocean.

It lies roughly 20,015 km from Manila — about as far apart as two points on Earth can possibly be. And the relationship is symmetric: the antipode of that spot is, of course, right back here in Manila.

What's actually there?

Manila's antipode is a rare one: it actually lands on solid ground, about 4 km from Bom Morto, a hamlet in Brazil. Most cities don't get that lucky — antipodal land pairs are uncommon since water covers about 71% of the globe.
