Quezon Memorial Circle, Quezon City, Philippines

The Quezon Memorial Circle is a national park, city square and a national shrine located in Quezon City, which became the capital of the Philippines from 1948 to 1976.
.
The park is located inside a large traffic circle in the shape of an ellipse and bounded by the Elliptical Road. Its main feature is a 66-metre tall mausoleum containing the remains of Manuel L. Quezon, the second official President of the Philippines and the first of an internationally recognized independent Philippines, and his wife, First Lady Aurora Quezon (visible below the centre of the image to the left).
.
“Circle”, as locals call it, has been undergoing significant changes in order to lure in more tourists, both local and foreign. It seems to be working!
