Chino Roces Avenue, formerly known as (and still commonly referred to as) Pasong Tamo, is a prominent north–south road in Makati and Taguig, Metro Manila, Philippines.
[2][3] The avenue is named after Joaquin "Chino" Roces, a journalist who founded The Manila Times and Associated Broadcasting Company (now TV5) and an opposition figure during the Marcos Sr. administration.
The road continues southwards through the western limits of the Makati CBD, bending slightly southwesterly between Dela Rosa and Don Bosco Streets.
It is lined with light industries and car dealerships on both sides, as well as a few factory outlets, in an area known as Mantrade or Kayamanan-C.[5] The road ends at Lawton Avenue within Fort Bonifacio in Taguig, near the New Philippine Senate Building and Sales Interchange.
The part of Chino Roces from Rufino Street to Arnaiz Avenue is home to several Japanese restaurants and shops, earning it the nickname "Little Tokyo".
