Mulanay, officially the Municipality of Mulanay (Tagalog: Bayan ng Mulanay), is a 1st class municipality in the province of Quezon, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 55,576 people.[3]

This place is situated on the Bondoc Peninsula; its geographical coordinates are 13° 31′ 20″ North, 122° 24′ 15″ East, and its original name was Malunay. Mulanay is 149 kilometers (93 mi) from Lucena and 279 kilometers (173 mi) from Manila.

The town proper, with her plain landscape, is a coastal town facing the Tayabas Bay. The municipality is being considered[citation needed] to be listed in the tentative list for UNESCO World Heritage Site inscription due to its architectural marvels, notably its baroque church, its preserved ancestral houses, and the Limestone tombs of Kamhantik, a highly-significant Tagalog archaeological site and dambana, in the Buenavista Protected Landscape.
