Capampangan: 2nd district

Pampanga, which lies on the northern shore of Manila Bay, prides itself as being the first province to be organized by Spanish conquerors. The name "La Pampanga" was given by the Spaniards who found the early natives living near the riverbanks.

It also served as the capital of the archipelago for two years from 1762 to 1764 during the British invasion of Manila. The word "pangpang," from which the province's name originated, means riverbank.

Its creation in 1571 makes it the oldest among the seven provinces of Central Luzon. The Province of Pampanga enjoys the distinction of being known as the culinary heart of the Philippines.
