Bacoor, Administrative division in Cavite, Philippines

Bacoor stands as a component city situated 15 kilometers southwest of Manila, bordered by Las Piñas, Muntinlupa, and the waters of Bacoor Bay.

The Battle of Zapote Bridge, which occurred on February 17, 1897, marked a critical moment in the Philippine struggle for independence against Spanish forces.

The Dulang Kakanin Festival brings together residents to celebrate local traditions through food preparation, games, and community gatherings throughout the city.

The city maintains an extensive public transportation network of jeepneys, buses, and tricycles connecting all 73 barangays with neighboring municipalities.

Following a successful plebiscite on June 23, 2012, Bacoor transformed from a municipality into a first-class component city with 664,625 residents.
