Manila Shopping
I’ve been going around different countries taking photos from various places, however I think it’s about time I took some shots of places in the country where I currently reside. I’ll probably be doing this type of post from time to time, showing you places and things to see in the Philippines, specifically Metro Manila. However if you folks who frequent this blog do find such type of post pointless and boring, please let me know.
Here are some shots of a place in Ortigas Center, Pasig called Edsa Shangri-la Plaza. Folks visiting Manila won’t have problem finding this place, since it’s right smack in the middle of the main city highway called Edsa.
The shots here were taken from the roof of the mall facing the 5-star Edsa Shangri-la hotel.
A few steps away from the Shangri-la is another mall called SM Megamall. The Megamall is actually the third largest mall in the Philippines and is one of the bigger malls among a mall chain called SM. Some say that SM is an abbreviated name for Shoemart to which these malls would find their roots, specializing in selling shoes. These days however you’d find just about anything you might need in this mall. And yes the list includes otaku need (although not so extensive). Incidentally this is also one of the places I would go to find paints for me gundams. ^^;
