GENERAL INFORMATION
ABOUT Manila
The term "Manila" is commonly used to refer to the whole metropolitan area, the greater metropolitan area or the city proper. The officially defined metropolitan area, called Metro Manila, the "capital region" of the Philippines, also includes the much larger Quezon City and the Makati Central Business District. It is the most populous region in the country, one of the most populous urban areas in the world, and is one of the wealthiest regions in Southeast Asia. The city proper was home to 1,846,513 people in 2020, and is the historic core of a built-up area that extends well beyond its administrative limits. With 71,263 people per square kilometer, Manila is the most densely populated city proper in the world.
Manila is located on the eastern shore of Manila Bay, on the island of Luzon. The Pasig River flows through the middle of the city, dividing it into the north and south sections. The city comprises 16 administrative districts: Binondo, Ermita, Intramuros, Malate, Paco, Pandacan, Port Area, Quiapo, Sampaloc, San Andres, San Miguel, San Nicolas, Santa Ana, Santa Cruz, Santa Mesa and Tondo. It is divided into six political districts for the purposes of its representation in the Congress of the Philippines and the election of city council members. In 2018, the Globalization and World Cities Research Network listed Manila as an "Alpha-" global city and ranked it seventh in economic performance globally and second regionally (behind Delhi, India in the latter case), while the Global Financial Centres Index ranks Manila 79th in the world.

The City as a Conference Destination:
The development of the Philippine convention industry became official government policy in 1976, a milestone year that marked the establishment of Southeast Asia’s first full-fledged convention center, the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC); and the creation of the Philippine Convention Bureau (PCB) as a government corporation dedicated to the promotion of Philippines as a meetings and convention destination. That same year, the Philippines successfully played host to the International Monetary Fund - World Bank Joint Conference that signaled the entry of the Philippines into the world conventions market.
Since then, the Philippines has hosted some of the biggest and most important international and regional meetings, conferences, conventions, congresses, and events that have made its capital city, Manila, one of the acknowledged “Convention Cities” of the world.

Manila Food Options for Conference Delegates
Food and entertainment opportunities in Manila are endless. Explore some of the best restaurants the city has to offer:
“Everybody talks about this place as Asia’s Best Female Chef 2016 Margarita Fores’ playground, where she champions the local farm-to-table movement and introduces the city to different native traditions,” Ang says. “That’s all true. But for a certain kind of diner, Grace Park is highly regarded as Manila’s best low-key dessert place. Trust me, that Eton Mess will change your life.”
“Gab Bustos and Thea De Rivera just got engaged, but 12/10—the hip izakaya joint bordering edge of Manila’s business district—has been a testament to their commitment for years,” Ang says. “Named after their anniversary, the pair launched the restaurant in their mid 20s and have gone from strength to strength, showing increasing confidence in their roles as chef and restaurateur, respectively. This is the kind of place that gives millennials a good name—impeccable branding, precocious entrepreneurship, a carefully curated soundtrack.”
“Located in a 90-year-old building on historic Escolta Street, Fred’s Revolución is the perfect place to take in Art Deco views at sunset—preferably with a beer in hand and sinful bagnet (deep fried pork belly) on the plate,” Ang says. “The long-dormant Escolta is once again experiencing a cultural revival thanks to the new generation of artists and creatives. And the First United Building, where Fred’s resides, is the revolution’s ground zero.”
