🌟 Manila's Marvel: Discovery Primea's Luxurious Comfort 🌟
Craving a slice of luxury in the heart of Manila? 🏙️ Let me whisk you away to Discovery Primea, Makati - a five-star experience that won't break the bank! 🌟
Nestled in Manila's bustling Makati district, this gem offers spacious rooms with grand bathtubs for that ultimate relaxation. 🛁 The third-floor infinity pool is a dream, giving you stunning city views while you soak up the calm. 🏊♂️
Foodies, rejoice! The in-house dining and room service are a gastronomic delight. 🍽️ However, if you're looking for a heated pool, you might want to check its availability, as maintenance can be a bummer. 🏊♀️
A few kinks here and there - like the pet policy and the need for a more senior-friendly hair dryer - but nothing that overshadows their stellar service and comfy beds. 💁♂️💤 And while the breakfast buffet could do with a zestier spread, the overall stay is a thumbs-up! 👍
Find your slice of paradise at 6749 Ayala Ave, Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines. 🌴

A beautiful modern shopping mall in Manila
Today I visited a new mall called Greenbelt in Manila. All I can say is it exceeded my wildest expectations and was utterly fantastic. It is a modern mall and makes for a nicer experience than some of the other older facilities that you usually see in Manila.
Greenbelt mall has lots of shops, mostly high end luxury stores that cater to the middle class. There are also plenty of restaurants to enjoy food and beverages.

Ever since I was in the university I always loved passing through or window shopping here. I didn't have money back then since I was just a student but Greenbelt Mall made me want to graduate and earn my own money so I could some fancy and luxurious stuff that I saw here. The power of manifestation and hard work. hahaha. Anyway Greenbelt mall is a luxury/high end mall in Makati City. Makati is an expensive city already and people here can afford thus a luxury mall. This mall really looks cozy and well maintained and as soon as you enter the mall, there's that 5 star hotel aroma or fragrance. A lovely mall to spend an afternoon after a long walking and strolling around. There are many restaurant inside and there is also a park outisde that you can chill if you don't want to be in the mall. Address: Legazpi Street, Legazpi Village, Makati

Understanding Philippine History!🇵🇭
#timetotravel
This museum is one of the best in the Philippines. There are a lot of collections and ancient Filipino atrificats here that are really well dispayed and well presented. To be honest, this is more than your standard museum, it's just well thought out, every section and every exhibit is amazingly done. We spent almost I guess two hours or more here, we just forgot the time because we were really hooked. It is really worth re-visiting after the last one which was maybe 15 years ago.
Ticket Price: Around 500.
Nearest Subway Station: MRT Ayala Avenue. Enjoy your visit !
