Rizal Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rizal Park (Filipino: Liwasang Rizal), also known as Luneta Park or colloquially Luneta, is a historical urban park located in the heart of the city ofManila, Philippines, adjacent to the old walled city of Manila, now Intramuros. Since the Spanish Colonial Era, the park has been a favorite spot for unwinding, socializing, an urban oasis for family picnics on Sundays and holidays. It is one of the major tourist attractions of Manila.
Located along Manila Bay, Luneta has been the site of some of the most significant moments in Philippine history. The execution of pacifist Dr. José Rizal on December 30, 1896, sparked the fire of the Philippine Revolution against the Spanish colonizers, elevating the martyr as the national hero of the country. The park was officially renamed Rizal Park in his honor and his monument serves as the symbolic focal point of the park. The Declaration of Philippine Independence from American rule was held here on July 4, 1946 as well as the political rallies of Ferdinand Marcos andCorazon Aquino in 1986 that led to the EDSA Revolution that deposed Marcos ending his dictatorial government.
