Pasay Road, also known as Pio Del Pilar is a station situated on the Manila-Legazpi Line. It serves Pio Del Pilar, Makati City.


History

Pasay Road was opened on June 21, 1908 as Culi-Culi, the only station serving San Pedro Macati (now Makati City). A wooden station building with aand platform was built in 1924, replacing the dilapidated galvanized iron structure.
