Night at SM Mall of Asia

As promised, I had here a separate post of the Mall of Asia (MOA), specifically that of the attraction beside the Manila Bay. Claimed as the largest mall in Asia, MOA provide a variety of leisure activities that will let you enjoy the beauty of nature as well as the magnificent man-made structures.

The mall's architectural design is of elongated circles. They took advantage of the wind contributed by the Manila Bay by creating a non-air conditioned building. It provides you the urge to visit the body of water as provided by their walk-way.














On the bridge, you'll be able to see a city-like view, with all the tall buildings and the vehicles. But once you get down, you'll be able to enjoy the "park-like" area provided for. They've got there an area that seem to serve as a sort of gym. Though it is only really meant for playing. They also got a number of restaurants and coffee shops that will attend to your cravings when you got tired of walking beside the bay. Lucky for us, we had spotted a Michael Jackson look alike in front of a bar. It is the statue-like person that got to move once you lay money on their cans. At the heart of the park is a fountain that somewhat provided cool air. I must say the view is spectacular.

Indeed, it is kinda far from my hometown. But it is worth the travel. Specially if there's pyrolympics :D

Trinoma Digital 3D Cinema

Three days after my birthday, I had been able to watch Ice Age 3 in digital 3D format at Trinoma together with the love of my life and her family.

The size of the cinema is of normal size as any other. It was only the film that had been transformed into digital 3D; hence, you need to have a special eyeglasses to appreciate 3D. With that technology, the normal PhP170 movie tickets are now PhP300. I cannot 100% attest that it is fair. I do enjoy the movie, but there is something missing in the feel of 3D experience (as compared to IMAX at the Mall of Asia). It is because of the size of the screen. Here at Trinoma Digital 3D Cinema, the screen is a bit small, making you see the other persons in the movie house. Unlike in IMAX, the screen is large enough that it feels like you are really PART of the movie, itself.

Here are some of the pictures I had inside the cinema. Actually, the model here is the love of my life.




If you haven't experienced watching movies in digital 3D format, I suggest you first watch at Trinoma or SM Digital 3D Cinemas for you to appreciate the experience. Otherwise, I'd better watch in IMAX at MOA or SM North EDSA for the best 3D experience. Anyway, it is only a hundred more in terms of ticket price.
