पायरेसोस, Independent municipality in Metro Manila, Philippines

The municipality spans across a compact territory bordered by Pasig to the north and Taguig on the remaining sides of Metro Manila.

Originally named Aguho as a district of Pasig, the area received independent municipality status through a Spanish Governor-General decree in 1799.

The municipal seal displays a Mallard duck and ten duck eggs, representing the local districts and the traditional duck-raising activities.

The local government maintains tax exemptions for balut vendors and supports initiatives to sustain the traditional duck-raising industry.

Pateros retains fiscal control over tax revenues without sharing with provincial authorities, operating independently within Metro Manila's administrative structure.
