AYALA CENTER, MAKATI

The Ayala Center is a commercial development operated by Ayala Land located in the central business district of Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines.

The Ayala Center is a business, recreational, shopping, dining, and entertainment development located in Barangay San Lorenzo in Makati, at the corner of two major thoroughfares, Ayala Avenue and Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA), in Makati's central business district. Its location places it virtually at the heart of the country's commercial and business center. The Ayala Metro Rail Transit (MRT) station serves the area. The development originally started with a number of separate shopping arcades and Greenbelt Park before expanding to cover over 50 hectares[citation needed] of facilities. Today the complex now includes several malls, each with its own shopping and restaurant arcades and cinemas; three department stores, a number of hotels; and the Ayala Museum, showcasing exhibits on Philippine history and art.
