TWO STOP SHOP TOURIST VISIT IN PHILIPPINE MALLS



SM Mall of Asia and Trinoma


The SM Mall of Asia is the largest shopping mall in the Philippines and the 7th largest shopping mall in the world in terms of gross floor size, after the South Dongguan Mall (China), Golden Resources Mall (China), Central World Plaza (Thailand), Seacon Square (Thailand),and Runwal Arcade (India). It opened on May 21, 2006.

The Mall of Asia was constructed within the reclamation area, west of Roxas Boulevard in Pasay City, aptly nicknamed "Bay City". It is built on 19.5 hectares of reclaimed land and has a gross floor area of 386,224 square meters. The mall is located at the southmost tip of Epifanio de los Santos Avenue. A roundabout was constructed in the front of the mall with a huge bronze globe similar to Universal Studios.

The SM Mall of Asia mall grounds consists of four buildings interconnected by walkways; the Main Mall, the Entertainment Mall, and the North and South Carpark Buildings.

The Main Mall includes shopping and dining establishments and the food court. The Entertainment Mall is a two-story complex, a majority of which is open-air, facing Manila Bay.

The mall's 5,000 parking spaces are divided across two, six-story parking buildings conveniently designated the North and South parking buildings. The South Parking building houses the mall's official SM Department Store, while the mall's supermarket, the SM Hypermarket is located within the North Parking building. A major portion of the North Parking building also contains the offices of Dell International Services Philippines (Dell, Inc.).

One of the mall's somewhat-unique features is a 20-seater tram traveling around the mall grounds to ferry shoppers around.

Concierge desks are located in the Main Mall and the Entertainment Mall

The mall includes branches of all of the standard anchor stores found in most of the SM Supermalls. The first-ever branch of Taste Asia, one of the SM Supermalls' food court brands, is located right outside the mall's supermarket, the sprawling SM Hypermarket. (Another Taste Asia branch has since opened in SM Supercenter Pasig)

One of the mall’s main attractions is the first ever IMAX theater in the country, along with a Director's Club Theater for intimate screenings (30 La-Z-Boy seats), a Premiere Cinema, and the CenterStage Cinema which can used for live musical concerts and theatrical performances.

In addition to the mall's special theaters, it also has six regular two-tiered movie theaters similar to the ones found in almost every SM Supermall.

The mall features the Philippines's first Olympic-sized ice skating rink. At 61 by 30 meters, the rink is described as the biggest of its kind in Southeast Asia. It can accommodate both recreational and competitive figure skating, as well as ice hockey. Along with plain access and skate rentals, the rink's operators also offer training progams in both figure skating and ice hockey. Several ice skating competitions have been held at the mall's ice skating rink.

The mall also provides office space. Dell International Services, a subsidiary of Dell, Inc. occupies a 13,470.5-square meter area at the second floor of the north parking building of the mall.








TRINOMA



TriNoMa, Triangle North of Manila, one of Ayala Corporation's largest mall development in the Philippines, is an upscale shopping center located on the corner of North Avenue and Epifanio de los Santos Avenue in Quezon City, Philippines.

The mall grounds are situated at the "north triangle" formed by the intersection of North Avenue, Epifanio de los Santos Avenue and Mindanao Avenue in Quezon City. It is right across the street from another major Philippine mall, SM City North EDSA. Located on a 20 hectare parcel of land, the mall has a gross leasable area of 195,000 square meters, including the adjacent Landmark QC.[citation needed]

It is directly connected to Manila MRT's North Avenue MRT Station. It will be almost connected to the Yellow Line's proposed North Avenue LRT Station. Its next door buildings are the Manila MRT North Avenue Depot and EDSA Mass Transit Project. It will have an overpass connecting TriNoma to SM City North EDSA and it will be called TriNoMa-SM City North EDSA Overpass.

Retail Establishments

The shopping center, dubbed as a super regional mall, will play host to more than 550 high-end shopping and retail establishments. It will boast of flagship stores which are not only the largest, but also the best out of a brand's chain of establishments. The establishment has already enlisted about 600 tenants and is 90% leased out. It also has two department stores: Crossings Department Store and The Landmark Department Store, the latter serving as the anchor store of the mall and also having a supermarket and a hypermarket.
