Meycauayan, Industrial component city in Bulacan, Philippines
Located 19 kilometers north of Manila, Meycauayan covers 22.1 square kilometers of land with a mix of industrial zones and residential neighborhoods.
Franciscan missionaries established the settlement in 1578, making it one of the earliest towns in the Philippines and a center for Spanish administration.
The name Meycauayan originates from Tagalog words meaning 'there is bamboo', reflecting the natural landscape that influenced early settlement patterns.
The city contains multiple industrial parks in the Barangays of Iba, Camalig, and Pantoc, providing employment opportunities for its 225,673 residents.
Stone quarries in Meycauayan supplied the adobe rocks used to construct the defensive walls of Intramuros in Manila during the Spanish colonial period.
