Quezon City is not new to me. I pass by the city premises most of the time. May it be going home to my parents' house in Bulacan, I take a road trip along Commonwealth Avenue; Fairview too.. Not only were the roads familiar to me. I've been to several places in the city: Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife, UP Diliman, UP TechnoHub and La Mesa Eco Park to name a few.
And that's what the tour was all about.. To go to several landmarks in Quezon City that has made a mark either for the country's history or the city itself.

| One of Novotel's rooms.. |
 |

It was an tiring yet interesting tour as there were some areas that I haven't been or revisited for a long time.
Quezon City is one large city for explore. And lots to offer presently and to the days to come to its residents and visitor alike.
