Quezon, Administrative province in Calabarzon region, Philippines
The province extends across 8,989 square kilometers of Luzon island, featuring mountainous terrain, coastal areas, and numerous islands including the Polillo archipelago.
The region, initially named Kalilayan in 1591 and later Tayabas, received its current name in 1946 to honor President Manuel L. Quezon.
The Pahiyas Festival occurs annually in Quezon, where residents decorate their houses with agricultural products and handmade decorations called kiping.
Lucena City functions as the primary transportation hub of Quezon, connecting the province to Manila through regular bus services and private vehicles.
The province contains Mount Banahaw, a dormant three-peaked volcano that rises 2,158 meters above sea level and holds religious significance for local communities.
