The Pasig River Light was the first light station in the Philippines when it was established in 1642. The first lighthouse tower in the country was erected in the station and first lit in 1846. It was then located on the north jetty at the mouth of Pasig River in San Nicolas, Manila, marking the entrance of the river for vessels cruising Manila Bay, looking to dock on the inland Port of Manila that was then located along the banks of the Pasig River in Binondo and Intramuros.

  • L'ancien phare de la rivière Pasig fut le premier phare des Philippines mis en service en 1642. La première tour fut érigée en 1846 sur la jetée nord à l'embouchure de la rivière Pasig, à San Nicolas, un quartier de Manille. Il marquait l'entrée de la rivière pour les navires de croisière de la baie de Manille accostant dans le port intérieur de Manille qui était alors situé le long des rives de la rivière Pasig à Binondo et Intramuros, deux autres quartiers de Manille. Il a été remplacé par un phare plus moderne à 1.5 km plus en amont de l'embouchure actuelle de la rivière. (fr)

Le premier phare, connu localement sous le nom de Farola («phare» en espagnol ), était l'un des monuments les plus remarquables du port de Manille depuis sa construction jusqu'au début du XXe siècle. La construction et la remise en état du nouveau port de Manille le long de la baie de Manille, au sud du phare, fit qu'il fut démoli en 1992 Il a été remplacé par un phare plus moderne à 1.5 km plus en amont de l'embouchure actuelle de la rivière.

The first lighthouse, which was known locally as Farola (Spanish for "lighthouse"), was one of the most conspicuous landmarks in the harbor of Manila from the time it was built till the early part of 20th century. The construction and land reclamation of the new Port of Manila along Manila Bay, south of the light station, and the subsequent expansion and reclamation north and west of the tower, had greatly altered the location of the lighthouse, obscuring the light from the wide expanse of Manila Bay. Its former location and the location of its replacement tower is about 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) upriver from the present mouth of the river (en)
