San Nicolas, Administrative district in Manila, Philippines
San Nicolas spans across the western central section of Manila, stretching along the northern bank of the Pasig River beside Binondo district.
The district, originally named Baybay, transformed from a Chinese settlement before 1570 into a Dominican mission named San Nicolas in 1598 outside Intramuros.
The fifteen barangays of San Nicolas maintain numerous 19th-century ancestral residences, including the General Antonio Luna House and Pasig River Lighthouse.
Local transportation within San Nicolas connects to major commercial areas through jeepneys, tricycles, and pedicabs, with the Tutuban Center serving as a central point.
The district population decreased from 44,241 in 2010 to 42,957 in 2020, showing a demographic shift in this riverside neighborhood of Manila.
