The re-constructed Pasig River Lighthouse stands at the mouth of the river as it enters Manila Bay.

Constructed during the administration of Gov. Gen. Sebastian Huntado de Corcuera in 1642 and renovated in 1992 from the original foundation, the present tower stands 48 feet and has a range of 22 miles.

The light tower now stands inside the Coast Guard compound and at the same time is maintained by them.
