Calabarzon, Administrative region southeast of Manila, Philippines.

Calabarzon encompasses five provinces - Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon - covering 16,557 square kilometers of southwestern Luzon Island.

The region emerged from the division of Southern Tagalog in 2002, establishing Region IV-A with Calamba City as its capital through Executive Order 103.

The provinces within Calabarzon maintain strong connections to national hero José Rizal, with his birthplace in Calamba and numerous historical sites throughout the region.

This region generates 17 percent of the Philippines' GDP through manufacturing facilities, agricultural production, and industrial parks across its five provinces.

Mount Makiling in Los Baños and Taal Volcano in Batangas form natural landmarks that define the geographical character of this populous Philippine region.
