Plaza Dilao, Historic square in Paco, Manila, Philippines.
The plaza features paved walkways, benches, and trees, positioned at the intersection of Quirino Avenue and Quirino Avenue Extension.
Japanese Christians established their first settlement in this location during 1614, led by the converted feudal lord Justo Takayama seeking refuge from persecution.
The name Dilao originates from the Spanish term for the Japanese inhabitants' skin tone, as 'dilaw' means yellow in Tagalog language.
The square functions as one of Manila's five freedom parks, allowing citizens to conduct protests and rallies without requiring official permits.
The Philippine Columbian Association, the country's oldest sporting club, relocated its headquarters to Plaza Dilao in 1979.
