About QC

Weekly Topic: What city or town do you currently live in? Describe your favorite part of living in that place by showing some pictures!

Jane M.

Hello! I hope you had a great start in 2023!

This is my entry for this week's topic. ^^

I live in Quezon City (QC), the largest city in Metro Manila. Here are some photos of my city's most significant landmark, Quezon City Memorial Circle.


It is also known as the "City of Stars," as it is home to most of the major broadcasting networks in the country. You can find our version of the Hollywood Walk of Fame here.



QC is where modern meets nature, which is my favorite part of living here. One can enjoy the perks of city life and still bask in lush greenery here and there. 




This is where my family and I go biking most weekends. It is located on the main campus of the University of the Philippines. 





We can't forget the food! ^^ I love going to these local markets where they sell not only food but also plants, handicrafts, ceramics, etc. 

The makings of a delicious Paella Negra and Ilocos Empanada.


Lastly, I like our public library! It isn't massive, but it is a relaxing place to read. Plus, there is a cafe inside.


That's all! Thank you for reading!
