Introducing Iloilo

Iloilo (ee-lo-ee-lo) City, the hub of Panay once known as the Queen City of the South, is the most cosmopolitan city in the Visayas after Cebu. It has a compact, walkable downtown, a relatively vibrant nightlife and music scene fuelled by the student population, and an excellent choice of accommodation and restaurants. It's a logical base for combining a trip to Boracay with Guimaras, which is only a short hop away. 'Downtown' Iloilo City is surrounded by three old suburbs: Molo, Jaro and La Paz (la-pass).
