Kalaw Avenue (formerly ''T.M. Kalaw Street'') is a short stretch of road in the Ermita district of Manila, Philippines. It forms the southern boundary of Rizal Park running east-west from San Marcelino Street to Roxas Boulevard near the center of the city. It begins as a four-lane road at the intersection with San Marcelino widening to an eight-lane divided roadway along the stretch of Rizal Park from Taft Avenue west to Roxas Boulevard. It has a short extension into the reclaimed area of Luneta and Quirino Grandstand as South Drive. The avenue was named after Teodoro Kalaw, a Filipino legislator and historian of the Philippine Commonwealth period who also served as Director of the National Library located along the street. It was formerly known as San Luis Street (Spanish: ''calle San Luis'').〔(Remembrances and the streets of Manila ) published by Philippine Daily Inquirer; accessed 2013-10-08.〕 ==Landmarks== * Casino Español de Manila * Central United Methodist Church * Department of Tourism Building * Eton Baypark * Harbor View Restaurant * Instituto Cervantes de Manila * Luneta Hotel * Manila Ocean Park * Manila Prince Hotel * Masagana Superstore (SM Savemore) * Museo Pambata * Museum of the City of Manila * National Library of the Philippines * National Historical Commission of the Philippines * Plaza Salamanca * Rizal Park 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kalaw Avenue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
