Travel Guide
Quezon City which includes forest scenes
The most populated city in Metro Manila is also one of the most exciting, with iconic monuments, glittering malls and scenic escapes.

Travel the breadth of Quezon City and you will pass districts with all kinds of food to sample, exciting entertainment hubs and even serene pockets of nature. This multifaceted destination promises art galleries, stylish shopping malls and captivating historic sights. To get to the heart of Metro Manila, visit Quezon City.

Discover a city that was designed and intended as a new capital for the Philippines. President Manuel L. Quezon commissioned the building of a city named after him in 1938, making this district one of the newest parts of Metro Manila.

Head straight to the heart of the city in Quezon Memorial Circle. This national park features a famous monument to its namesake president, as well as a play area for children.

Visit the QCX Museum, which has interactive exhibits dedicated to the social history of the region. Use the interactive tablets found throughout the museum to learn about the legacy of President Quezon.

Sample the flavors of the Philippines in Maginhawa, the food center of Quezon City. This constantly evolving neighborhood offers a plethora of restaurants serving both tasty Filipino and international dishes. Alternate between its street food trucks and buzzing casual restaurants for a culinary exploration of Metro Manila’s food scene.

Escape from the constant bustle of the city into La Mesa Eco Park. Cycle around shaded paths that circle a lake or hike across the forests here. This park is rather vast and some travelers hire guides to help show them around.

Become part of a painting at Art in Island. This unique gallery gives visitors the chance to pose in 3-D paintings for eye-catching photos. It is worth setting aside several hours to enjoy every aspect of this fun museum.

Quezon City is one of the northernmost cities in Metro Manila. Ride the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) from Manila City to reach the city center. Public transport systems run throughout the city.

Go to Quezon City between November and May for the best weather and festive celebrations.

"35층 받았는데 참 경치 좋더라구요. 그리고 스타 여왕 마냥 놜퐈뤼들 참 생성하는게 경의롭더군요. 끝도 없이 나와서 많이 돌아 당겨요. 신기하게도 35층에 도마뱀도 봤어요. 솔직히 여기가 제일 좋긴 했어요, 3군데 가봤는데 깨끗하긴 해요 저글링만 좀 신경쓰면. 그릇이나 요리할 도구들 꽤 재공 많이 되서 오래 있을거면 추천해요. 스튜디오와 방 하나 달린거 두개 다 봤는데 방 있는거 추천할게요. 냉장고도 훨씬 더 커요 (집에서 요리 하거나 음식 남은거 좀 넣을려면). 침대 방과 거실에 에어컨 한개식 있어 시원히 지내며 갔습니다."
