- Night Life & Entertainment travel tip
- City center
La Loma was found in 1903 and is still extremely popular. The owners are the Guisons, the heirs of the founder, Don Tomas Guison. It is opened on Sundays and holidays and is always extremely crowded - both with locals and tourists. It's a common form of gambling as well!
It was really strange for me how all those people enjoy the bloody fight of those animals, especially when I learned that the roosters have sharped blades joined to their legs to make the fight more 'interesting'. But I guess it's just like bullfighting in Spain.
Address:
68 Calavite St.,
La Loma, Blumentritt

Quezon City History
A City of Promise Compared to its Metro Manila counterparts, Quezon City is in fact a relatively young city which comes as a surprise since one-fourth of the city comprises the metro.
