Cebu

The "Queen City of the South" has quietly become the Philippines' leading business address outside Metro Manila — a title it holds through two master-planned districts: Cebu IT Park, a 24-hour BPO and lifestyle district built on a former airfield, and Ayala's Cebu Business Park, a 50-hectare estate anchoring the city's financial core.
