Pasig, officially the City of Pasig (Tagalog: Lungsod ng Pasig), is a 1st class highly urbanized city in Metropolitan Manila, Philippines. According to the 2015 census, it has a population of 755,300 people. 

Located along the eastern border of Metro Manila with Rizal province, the city shares its name with the Pasig River. A formerly rural settlement, Pasig is primarily residential and industrial but has been becoming increasingly commercial in recent years, particularly after the construction of the Ortigas Center business district in its west. The city is also home to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Pasig based in Pasig Cathedral, a landmark built around the same time as the town's foundation in 1573.

Pasig was formerly part of Rizal province before the formation of Metro Manila, the national capital region of the country. The seat of government of Rizal was hosted in Pasig at the old Rizal Provincial Capitol until a new capitol was opened in Antipolo, within Rizal's jurisdiction in 2009. However, it remained as the de jure, or official capital of the province until July 7, 2020. On June 19, 2020, President Rodrigo Duterte signed Republic Act 11475, which designated Antipolo as the official capital of Rizal.

The “Martsa ng Pasig” (english: Pasig March) is the anthem of Pasig City. It is the product of a competition for the city hymn dating back fo February 2, 1975. During that time, Pasig City was still a part of Rizal Province. Victor Belen y Halili won the contest with his composition “Martsa ng Pasig”. He was honored by the municipal government on February 19, 1975 during the celebration of the city’s liberation in World War II. In November of the same year, Metro Manila region was formally created through Presidential Decree 824 which separated Pasig City from Rizal.
