As the home of the main international gateway to the Philippines, Pasay City has always been an important part of Metro Manila. It is considered the central hub for transportation and travel in the country as the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and other significant transportation infrastructure are located in this city.
Pasay City’s strategic location is one of its key strengths. It is accessible via several major roads — including EDSA, one of the busiest thoroughfares in the metro — and is close to other key players of the national capital region such as Makati, Manila, Quezon City, and Taguig.
It’s the ideal starting point for domestic and foreign travellers to explore the country as Pasay City is also home to entertainment and leisure hotspots. A number of integrated resorts that combine luxury accommodations with fine dining and world-class entertainment — including Solaire Resort & Casino, Okada Manila, Resorts World Manila, and City of Dreams Manila — are located in this city. There is also a smorgasbord of shopping, dining, and nightlife options in Pasay, with the Mall of Asia being the most prominent in the area.
Several cultural, art, entertainment, and events venues also call this dynamic city their home. The Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) on Roxas Boulevard, Philippine International Convention Center (PICC), Mall of Asia Arena, SMX Convention Center, and Newport Performing Arts Theater all host major events, from ballet shows and world-acclaimed concerts and musicals to international conventions and sporting events.
