SM Sta Mesa | SM Centerpoint | Manila, Philippines

After a short stroll at Greenhills Shopping Center, we went directly to SM Centerpoint to have our dinner there.

When we arrived, I noticed that the name of the mall was SM Sta Mesa and not SM Centerpoint. My dad then told me that SM Sta Mesa was formerly called SM Centerpoint. He said that it's the second SM Mall to be established in the Philippines. The mall is located very near the boundaries of Quezon City, San Juan City and in Manila.

However, the mall is not considered as the 3rd mall located in Quezon City because the term Centerpoint refers that the mall is located between the cities of Manila, San Juan and Quezon City. The SM Centerpoint was now changed to SM City Sta. Mesa in mid-May 2006, commemorating SM Sta. Mesa's 15th Anniversary. - Wikipedia

There was also a Graduation Reggae Special Event that day on SM Sta Mesa. There were a lot of hot, sexy Hawaiian (Filipinas actually, just dressed in Hawaiian) dancers and a Reggae Band to entertain the customers at the Food court. Here's a short video of the hot, sexy Hawaiian dancers and the cool Reggae band with a hot vocalist =).

Greenhills Shopping Center | San Juan, Manila, Philippines

After the 2 hours of Kerygma Feast at Valle Verde Country Club, we went to Greenhills Shopping Center. My dad was telling me that in the late 70’s, before all the big malls of SM sprout all over the metropolitan, Unimart (now Greenhills Shopping Center) is one of the Best Places to do your shopping.

No hard proof of how beautiful and sacred it is inside (Tsk3!). You got to visit and see it firsthand. It feels like you’re in Holy Land. Surely one of the Best Places In The World.
