Molo, Administrative district in Iloilo City, Philippines
The district stretches over 5.54 square kilometers and contains 25 barangays, making it the most densely populated area of Iloilo City with 76,393 residents.
Chinese traders established settlements in this area during 1637, leading to its formal recognition as Parián by Spanish authorities during colonial times.
