San Pedro is a city just south of Metro Manila. The city is largely a bedroom community, serving as an important terminus for city buses toward Metro Manila, but there are also local industries. The city's tourist draws include the Sampaguita Festival, the Santo Sepulcro Parish, and the challenging KC Filipinas Golf Club.
