Information about Pampanga Provincial Capitol

Pampanga Provincial Capitol

The Pampanga Provincial Capitol is the seat of government in the province of Pampanga, Philippines. This neo-classical building was constructed after the provincial capital of Pampanga was transferred from Bacolor to San Fernando in 1904. Currently, it houses the offices of the provincial government of Pampanga. Located along Capitol Boulevard in San Fernando, the Pampanga Provincial Capitol can be easily accessed since it is near other historical landmarks and establishments.
Known as the province's capital, San Fernando is located in the central part of Pampanga in Central Luzon. Around 67 kilometers north of Manila, 73 kilometers east of Subic, and 17 kilometers south of Clark Air Base, the city lies west of Mount Arayat along the North Luzon Expressway. 

Aside from the Pampanga Provincial Capitol, San Fernando has many historical sites and heritage houses. You can walk along its heritage district clustered along Consunji street to witness century-old homes that are now well-known tourist spots. Besides historical landmarks, you may also visit Sky Ranch Pampanga, a theme park where you can enjoy thrilling rides and attractions. 

Best time to visit

It's best to visit during the dry season (December to May), so you can get a clear view of the capitol's facade, which is the main draw of this tourist spot.
