  • aurora province- one of the most great place that i seen. not crowded, clean place, friendly people, nice beaches. you must try this one
  • Correction: the contributor here says that "Quezon is located southeast of Metro Manila".. I have never been there but map wise i know that Quezon city, it is located North East of Metro Manila.
  • What is referred here is Quezon Province not Quezon City. You are correct that Quezon City is to the northeast of the City of Manila (not Metro Manila though). It is also correct that Quezon Province is southeast of Metro Manila. This is clear if you read the tag description.
