Trinoma Gardens

Manila is not really a place you would think you’d be able to have a quiet walk on, to think, meditate or reflect on life. Well, unless you live in a condominium with its own compound that feautres nature like a fountain, a pool, you get what I mean. That has changed (a bit) with malls creating garden landscapes and they are such relief after that shopping which of course involves a lot of walking, searchin and crowd dealing. A relief after the grocery list you would have had to complete, and a relief fro when you and a friend need a quiet, relaxing spot to talk. One of my favorites, after Greenbelt, that is the newly structured Trinoma Mall in the North or Timog as Manila calls it. Very convenient as the mall is connected to the MRT line too, just get off the North Station. Below are some pictures I have taken of it.
