Pasay

Pasay is a city within Metro Manila in the Philippines. This administrative area lies between Manila Bay to the west and neighboring districts of the capital region to the north and east.

The area officially became a municipality in 1863 and evolved from rural settlements into an urban entity. During the 20th century, the territory became part of the expanding metropolitan region and accommodated infrastructure projects linking Manila to the bay.

The modern commercial districts along Roxas Boulevard represent the evolution of Pasay from traditional Filipino neighborhoods into metropolitan entertainment centers.

Travelers reach this area through the international airport or road connections from other parts of the capital region. The coastal roads offer direct access to hotels and public facilities, while inner routes pass through residential neighborhoods.

The northern portion of the city shares a long boundary with several neighboring municipalities, requiring coordination of roads and public services across administrative lines. In some spots, a few minutes of walking can take you from one jurisdiction to another.
