Quezon City Vacation Guide
Quezon City is the former capital (1948–1976) and the most populous city in the Philippines. Located on the island of Luzon, it is one of the cities and municipalities that make up Metro Manila aka National Capital Region. The city was named after Manuel L. Quezon, the former president of the Commonwealth of the Philippines who founded the city and developed it to replace Manila as the country's capital. It is not located in and should not be confused with Quezon province, which was also named after the said president.
Having been the former capital, many government offices are located in the city, including the Batasang Pambansa, the seat of the House of Representatives, which is the lower chamber in the Philippine Congress. The two leading universities, the Jesuit run Ateneo de Manila University and the country's premiere university—the University of the Philippines-Diliman, are located in the city.
