About Quezon City Philippines
Quezon City (Filipino: Lungsod
Quezon), is the former capital (1948–1976) and the most populous
city in the Philippines. Located on the island of Luzon, Quezon
City (popularly known to Filipinos as simply QC) is one of the
cities and municipalities that make up Metro Manila, the
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. Quezon City is not located in
and should not be confused with Quezon province, which was also
named after the 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 main campuses of two noteworthy
universities, the Ateneo de Manila University and the country's
national university—the University of the Philippines, Diliman—are
located in the city.

Quezon City is bordered by Manila to the southwest, by Caloocan
City and Valenzuela City to the west and northwest. To the south
lies San Juan and Mandaluyong City while Marikina City and Pasig
City borders Quezon City to the southeast. To the north across
Marilao River lies San Jose del Monte City in the province of
Bulacan and to the east lies Rodriguez and San Mateo, both in
the province of Rizal.
New Manila is located on west central portion of the city. This
is a largely residential district that was named after Quezon
City's neighbor to the southwest, Manila. The area was first
settled after the second World War by some of the more affluent
families who wished to escape the stress of living in Manila. As
a result, many of the houses here stand on lots measuring 500
square meters and above.
The main thoroughfares are Aurora Boulevard, Gilmore Street, and
Eulogio Rodriguez Avenue. Aurora Boulevard begins at the Quezon
City - Marikina border and reaches New Manila upon crossing EDSA.
Gilmore also crosses Ortigas Avenue, giving it access to
Mandaluyong, Pasig, and San Juan cities. Eulogio Rodriguez
Avenue diverges from Aurora Boulevard a few meters from EDSA.
Aurora Boulevard is the site of Broadway Centrum, where the
first GMA Network entertainment shows were shot. Saint Paul
University, Quezon City stands at the corner of Aurora Boulevard
and Gilmore Street, across a row of shops specializing in
computer equipment and an office of SYKES Asia. Trinity
University of Asia, Saint Joseph's College of Quezon City, the
Divine Word Seminary and St. Luke's Medical Center are all
located along Eulogio Rodriguez Avenue, as are the Quezon
Institute and the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office.
