Plaza Dilao

Paco, Philippines

Plaza Dilao is a public square in Paco, Manila, bounded by Quirino Avenue to the south and east and Plaza Dilao Road to the north and west. The former site of a Japanese settlement from the Spanish colonial era, the plaza prominently features a memorial commemorating Japanese Catholic kirishitan daimyō Dom Justo Takayama, who settled there in 1615. It is one of two open public spaces in Paco, the other being Paco Park. Plaza Dilao is one of five freedom parks in the City of Manila, where protests and rallies may be held without requiring permission from local authorities.
