Greenhills Shopping Mall

Greenhills Shopping Mall is the most popular indoor market and shopping complex in Manila. Bargain shopping is not just a promise, it’s a reality. 💰

Everything you expect in a market is here; handbags, accessories, clothing, shoes, jewelery, computers, software, electronic gadgets and so much more.

Make sure you don’t accept the first price quoted to you. Bargain, bargain, bargain!

The mall is located on Ortigas Avenue, San Juan in Metro Manila.

Next stop SM Megamall. The ultimate in Manila mall shopping.


SM Megamall

SM Megamall is an icon in Manila. A multi-level and multi-building complex provides the shopper with hours of shopping entertainment. The SM Megamall is on the corner of Julio Vargas Avenue, Mandaluyong with almost 1,000 stores inside. Famous and well-known brands are here at affordable prices. 🛒

Such a large mall with so many stores, it’s easy to get lost. My tip is use the escalators instead of the lifts. Each one has a floor number assigned to it which helps with navigating the mall.

If your feet are tired, find a spot like this to sit down and recharge. 🔽
