SM City Iloilo Southpoint

The "battle" of dining strips and al fresco shops in Iloilo continues! After the soft opening of SHOPS at Atria a few days ago and the upcoming Streets of Festive Walk at Megaworld's Iloilo Business Park, SM City Iloilo "answers back" with its own - the expansion of SM Southpoint. It will be a 2-storey mall with both air-conditioned and al fresco "ambiance" plus a mini park with fountain with a small park of the parking area retained.


As revealed in the website of its construction firm Monolith, the two storey-edifice will be put up  in the  mall's parking space between the current SM City Iloilo mall and Plazuela de Iloilo. The area is now "flattened" and actual constructions works on the edifice is set to start very soon. It will boost the mall's floor area by almost 25,000 sqm on top of the main malls' Northwing expansion.

Connie Carillo Diversified Farm in Bingawan: Helping Sustaining a Healthy Community Through Farm Schools

The area around the town of Bingawan, the edge of the central portion of the province is where it ends and the town of Tapaz, Capiz province begins and is very much another unsung corner of Iloilo with warm, friendly, welcoming people. Bingawan has some rich farming land and farming is at the heart of its village life. The landscapes are gorgeous here; with gentle pastures, to the high mountains.

St. Joseph Chapel at Festive Walk Iloilo's The Deck

While most malls around the country host Sunday masses in some obscure hallway filled with plastic chairs with a makeshift altar, some malls have built niches or transformed unused spaces into places of worship. And Ilonggos should be proud that one of the newest malls in Iloilo City has actually a chapel located in a prime spot and one that boasts both beauty and serenity.  The St. Joseph Chapel at Festive Walk Iloilo is located in one of its al fresco areas known as The Deck located  at the 3rd level. While this open air area also has a mini plaza and dog park (and soon - cafes and restaurants) it is the chapel that highlights this al fresco part of the mall. Eucharistic mass services are held every Sunday at 11am while first Friday masses at 5pm.  It is open to the public everyday for personal moments of silence and solitude. The Deck and everything in it is open from 10am to 10pm with the entrance located betwee...
