Makati - Greenbelt

Makati is one of the country’s premier cities so it’s no wonder that Greenbelt has the same reputation. To date, it’s one of the few select malls in the Philippines that offers a combination of high-end retail brands, fine dining restaurants, luxurious amenities, as well as prime entertainment and leisure offerings. It currently has five sections -- two enclosed, two open buildings, and the most recently built Greenbelt 5.

Mandaluyong - SM Megamall

SM Megamall is conveniently located to another business district, Ortigas. It currently has two buildings (Mega A and B), which occupies a total floor area of around 500,000 square meters. It’s also ranked as the second biggest mall in the Philippines and fourth largest in the world with a maximum occupancy capacity of 4 million people. SM Megamall is a great place to do your shopping since it has dedicated a section of its building solely for fashion retail brands, appropriately named the Mega Fashion Hall.
