DESTINATION: METRO MANILA
The National Capital Region, or Metropilitan Manila, or simply Metro Manila for most of us is a collection of Cities and Municipalities which is the center of politics, business, economics and tourism in the Philippines. Composed of 16 cities namely City of Manila, Caloocan, Las Piñas, Makati, Malabon, Mandaluyong, Marikina, Muntinlupa, Navotas, Pasay, Pasig, Parañaque, Quezon, San Juan, Taguig, Valenzuela and the Municipality of Pateros.
Metro Manila is situated on an isthmus bounded by Manila Bay to the west and Laguna de Bay to the south-east and divided by the Pasig River which links the two bodies of water. The area is bounded by Bulacan to the north, Rizal to the east, Laguna to the south and Cavite to the southwest.
As our first Destination of the Month, we will be featuring local tourist spots and events from the Metro. Update yourself for special tour packages by visiting our Tumblr account, www.turismopinoy.tumblr.com or by following us on Twitter, @TurismoPinoy or our website www.turismopinoy.ph.
