Climate

Climate typeClimate typePAGASA sorts the country's climate into four types by when the rain falls. Type I has a dry season from November to April and a wet one for the rest of the year; Type II has no dry season, with the most rain from December to February; Type III has a short dry season; Type IV has rain spread through the year.More in the glossary

Type III[36]

No clear rainiest time of year, and a short dry season of one to three months, in December to February or in March to May.

Covers about 75 of every 100 parts of its land. Read by Scene off PAGASA's climate map, so approximate: the type that covers most of the place's land.

Government & Leaders

A governor leads Rizal. Its local laws, called ordinances, are passed by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (the provincial board), led by the vice governor. The governor, the vice governor and the board's elected members serve three-year terms, and none may serve more than three in a row.[15, 16]

History & Identity

Created
Organized as the Province of Rizal by Act No. 137 of the Philippine Commission, enacted 11 June 1901[10]

How it got its name

It is named after the national hero, José Rizal. At a meeting of 221 delegates in the Pasig church on 5 June 1901, Trinidad H. Pardo de Tavera of the Federal Party proposed joining the Province of Manila and the District of Morong into one province that would carry his name.[11]

On 11 June 1901 the Philippine Commission's Act No. 137 gave the province it organized the name Rizal.[10]

Its story

Under Spain its land belonged to the provinces of Tondo and La Laguna. Towns such as Pasig, Parañaque, Taytay and Cainta were already Tagalog trading communities before the Spaniards came.[12]

In 1853 Morong, Antipolo, Taytay, Cainta and other towns were taken out of the province of Tondo and made a politico-military district, named first after the mountains of San Mateo and, four years later, after Morong, the district's real capital.[11, 12]

Act No. 137 joined the old Province of Manila, without the city of Manila, to the District of Morong: 19 towns from the one and 14 from the other, with the capital at Pasig.[10, 11]

The province marks 11 June, the day of Act No. 137, as its founding anniversary; its 124th fell in 2025.[10, 13]

In 1975 Presidential Decree No. 824 put twelve of its towns, among them Makati, Pasig, Marikina, Parañaque and Taguig, under the new Metropolitan Manila together with the cities of Manila, Quezon City, Pasay and Caloocan. Rizal was left with fourteen towns.[11, 14]

Timeline

  1. 1853

    Morong, Antipolo, Cainta, Taytay and other towns are taken out of Tondo to form a politico-military district, later named the Distrito-Militar de Morong.[11, 12]

  2. 1860

    The Province of Tondo becomes the Province of Manila.[11]

  3. 5 June 1901

    Delegates meeting in the Pasig church hear the proposal to unite Manila and Morong as one province named Rizal.[11]

  4. 11 June 1901

    Act No. 137 organizes the Province of Rizal, with its capital at Pasig.[10]

  5. 7 November 1975

    Presidential Decree No. 824 places twelve of Rizal's towns in the new Metropolitan Manila.[11, 14]

Nearby

Rizal shares a border with Bulacan, Laguna, Metro Manila and Quezon.
