Lakbayin #5: Alabang CBD

Alabang: The fast-rising Metro of the South, just adjacent to Metro Manila. From sprawling fields of grasslands it has become second home to many of the Manila elite's investments, creating a mini-metropolis a stone's throw away from the capital.

Yes, it felt like I was in an intro to an RPG. 

The last time I've been here was around 14 years ago, when there was only one or two major establishments, the Alabang Starmall and Festival Mall, the latter which was so new it had a lot of empty stalls and spaces to be filled. It was an adventure for the high-schooler me back then, and a grand nostalgia trip for me as I rediscovered the place.

Good surprises await!
