Sister cities of Quezon City

Quezon City (Filipino: Lungsod ng Quezon) is the most populous and richest city in the Philippines. It is also the largest city in Metro Manila. Located on the island of Luzon, Quezon City (popularly known to Filipinos as QC) is one of the cities that make up Metro Manila, the National Capital Region. The city was named after Manuel L. Quezon, former President of the Philippines, who founded the city and developed it to replace Manila as the country's capital for 28 years from 1948 to 1976. Quezon City is not located in and should not be confused with Quezon province, which was also named after the president.

Having been the national capital, Quezon City is the site of many government offices, including the Batasang Pambansa Complex which is the seat of the House of Representatives (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.
