Mano po.

is a gesture used in Filipino culture. It is used as a sign of respect to elders. It is a way of accepting a blessing from the elder.


This Filipino gesture is like hand-kissing whereby the person giving the greeting bows towards the offered hand of the elder and presses his or her forehead on the elder’s hand.


The Filipino word - mano literally means hand in Spanish. Po in the Filipino culture is used to show respect to anyone older than the other person within a conversation.
