Rizal is a province located in the CALABARZON region, just 16 kilometers east of Manila.

The
province was named after Jos Rizal.
Rizal is bordered by Metro Manila to the west, the province of Bulacan to the north, Quezon to the
east and Laguna province to the south. The province also lies on the northern shores of Laguna de
Bay, the largest lake in the country.
Rizal is a mountainous province perched on the western slopes of the southern portion of the Sierra
Madre mountain range. Antipolo boasts of a wonderful view of Metro Manila and it is
where Hinulugang Taktak, a waterfall popular with tourists, can be found.
The Rizal Province will be accessed by the future C-6 Road connecting the provinces
of Bulacan and Cavite and cities of Taguig (beside Laguna de
Bay), Paraaque and Muntinlupa which are located within Metro Manila.
