Background

Bayanihan Park is geographically located in the city of Angeles, Philippines.[1] While the park is situated outside the physical gates of the Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone, the park itself covering an area of Шаблон:Convert is declared as part of the freeport zone as per Republic Act No. 9400.[2]

It is formerly known as Astro Park. One of the major landmarks of the city of Angeles, the Salakot Arch, is situated inside the park. The structure's roof resembles that of a salakot, a traditional hat. It was built during the administration of then-President Ferdinand Marcos to commemorate the revision of the Military Bases Agreement between the Philippine and United States government in 1979. The deal recognized Philippine sovereignty over the Clark Air Base which was then controlled by the United States.[3] The Salakot Arch was formerly situated inside the Clark Air Base (which was later converted to the Clark Freeport Zone) but was later relocated inside the park. The park was renamed as the Bayanihan Park when the Clark Airbase was converted to a Philippine-controlled base.[4]
