Introduction to
Antipolo City
Antipolo came from the word “tipolo”
which is a tree found all over the place.
The place grew from a simple town to be
a city all because of the patronage of the
Virgin Mary. The location also helps; it
offers new scenery with its cool
environment.
The mountainous place holds its place
around identifiable areas. The view of the
metro in one side and Laguna bay in the
other.
The strenuous travel of the earlier times is
now replaced by an easy journey from the
metro
