Mandaluyong ( ; ), officially the City of Mandaluyong (, ), is a highly-urbanized city in the National Capital Region of the Philippines. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 465,902 people.

Located directly east of Manila, Mandaluyong was originally a barrio of Santa Ana de Sapa (now a district of Manila) called San Felipe Neri. It separated and became its own town in 1841, and later acquired the name Mandaluyong in 1931 during the American occupation. In 1994, it became the first municipality of Metro Manila to become a city since the metropolis' establishment in 1975.
