The University of the Philippines (UP) is home and alma mater to some of the country's best and brightest. It has been on the road to putting up new buildings and infrastructure in recent years due to newly found funding from the private sector. Shown in the picture is the UP Ampitheater, one of the more recent structures in the campus. The UP loop is a popular destination for joggers and bikers since half the road is dedicated to them. It is most popular especially on Sundays when the UP loop is totally closed off to motor vehicles.

This large circular park is a good place to go for a morning walk or jog or simply for stroll. It also has a museum at the center dedicated to the city's founder, Manuel L. Quezon.
If you just want to chill, hangout, and enjoy nature with your family and friends, Quezon Memorial Circle is a good place to go to. A lot of activities to do such as zumba, ballroom, boxing, food trip, bazaar shopping, plant buying or just simply appreciating nature and being at peace.

I caught a GRAB prebooked modern car from near GMA railway station at a weekday peak cost of P374. As there were no traffic jams at 0900 hours on a Thursday, in 25 minutes I was at the park. Entrance was P50. The aged in her 20s Filipina spoke excellent English. The park has a typical 1000 visitors on a weekend day but only 200 or so on most non-holiday weekdays. Bring water and a hat as even at 1000 hours it was humid and very warm. A lot of the park is in shade, but not all. I did not experience any mosquitoes but insect repellent may be another wise item to carry. I inspected the butterfly house at an extra cost of P60. There were about 30 flying of three species. In summer, from March, a larger aviary is opened. The park covers 73 hectares and has benefited hugely from thousands of trees and understorey planted since 2001. The forest trails were unsigned but terrific, with dense canopies. I saw some colourful birds including a yellow-bellied flycatcher. One really felt a million miles away from Metro Manila. There are two swimming pool complexes. The one that was open has about an eight lane, 50 metre pool that was very clean and looked inviting. Entrance was P80. There are refreshment kiosks with food prices as low as P15. A 330ml can of Coke was P40. The flower terraces have views of La Mesa dam. A lot of schoolchildren were visiting on this weekday and were noisy, but did not seem to walk into the forest. This is a great attraction. An oasis away from the traffic and congestion of the Metro Manila area. It is not open on Christmas Day and possibly not on Good Friday, but apart from that opens 363 days a year 0800 - 1700. Arriving early gives the best chance to see birds, particularly if one has binoculars. Some of the trees are 30 metres tall, at least. I walked to the bridge (where there was a friendly guard who spoke good English) and eventually found a tricycle to the Jollibee (and other restaurants) complex on Pearl Drive. The fare was P30. I then caught a taxi to my other Quezon City destination.

It's our first time to try this kind of relaxation and I can say the overall experience was great, filled with fun and joy especially for families. If you're stressed with your life in the Metro "This is the place to be" =)

There is nothing more comfortable than living in Eastwood City where you can walk, dine, buy groceries, watch live concerts and see a movie all in one place. Should you want to eat or have coffee in the middle of the night or even the wee hours of the morning, you can expect establishments open 24/7 to cater to your cravings. I love how everything is in Eastwood for you to shop or even have your health check-ups.

The UP Town Center owned by the University of the Phil along Katipunan Road now being operated and managed by the capable Ayala Group of Companies is the best business venture that the University of the Phil ever entered into. The lease of the premises to Ayala group gave the State University the much needed added revenue to run the budget starved public university. The Ayalas were able to attract many restaurants, Department stores, trade shops, book stores to set up shop at the Center. A very convenient place to ride the P2P buses in going to the Ayala Business Center and just parking one’s car in its car Park to avoid driving in Manila traffic! I always meet with some Friends or do business meetings in the UP Town Center. It’s also a pit stop after travelling from other places in Quezon City, Makati and adjacent cities. A very convenient mall to stop and rest for my family on our way home in Quezon City. A very nostalgic UP Town Center constructed on the area where our once UP High School stood to rent and get the much needed financial help to the Diliman University! “UP Beloved, Our Alma Mater Dear!”
