Welcome back friends c", It's been awhile now that I haven't feature Malls on my little blog and since I was in Cebu lately, I didn't let it passed by without visiting one.
I love malls, its not because I love to shop or buy just about anything, but because I applaudetheir granduer and unique ambiance, the atmosphere of hapiness, excitement and fun. People come to malls to shop or window shop, eat, watch movie or hang out. It had become a living entity that breaths to peoples desires.
I have been to a lot of Malls around the country and only few stands out, one of them is Cebu City's pride, Ayala Center.
My recent trip to Cebu was a hectic one, given only a day with business matter as the priority, I have only few free time to spare thats why I visited the Ayala mall late night but not in vain because I was in the right moment to see this incredible scenery.
This is the east side entrance of the mall, a very grandoise welcome. Look at all those flood lights, it brought a classy ambiance, its like a mall abroad and my powerful N82 capture every detail of it.
A few steps away from the entrance and this splendid site will great you. A park with a beautiful landscape at the middle of the mall. They call this the TERRACE.
A closer look at the main mall, the park is oblong shape sorrounded by the malls structure. I took this at the balcony/hallway of the south part facing the main mall on the north. I was standing on a second floor structure that gave me this view.
This is the west part of the park, eluding the same imposing view. Love it.
This is not part of the park, just took a picture because I like the scenery. The pathway seen is going to Marriote Hotel, a 4 star hotel were I stayed c", just kidding, can't afford one.
I took this photo on the west side part of the park showing the southeast. The 1st and 2nd floor of this building houses mostly fine dining restaurants, pizzeria, steakhouses, grills and coffee shops, all expensive and can't afford again.
The south building has this huge leaf style ceiling covering a part of the park. I'm taking this on the center ground of the park facing south, a gigantic facade!
If only I have images of this mall before, it would have been a great comparison. The transformation of this mall was really amazing. This is just one of the very reason why Cebu is a tourist hub, its world class facility coupled with great attractions that has historical and religious flare. Definitely a place to be.
