BGC Has Beaten Makati? Sobrang Daming Tao! | Christmas 2024 Walk Tour

[@小林陽葵-f6y]

Proud Makatizen here! Sa amin talaga ang BGC.

[@PogiboyProductions]

Wow!! Beautiful walk.. BGC is such a pretty neighborhood!

[@armandosune3839]

Ayala Land has learned its lesson and its now building in ILOILO a new kind of mall experience - more gardens and trees, in the midst of which are low-rise shopping buildings, similar to what you can see in the redeveloped Greenbelt area and at Bonifacio High Sreet and complemented with multi-storey BPO/IT/Call Center buildings which are urgently in demand right now in Metro Iloilo.

[@lakwatsatour]

I'm looking forward to seeing how it will turn out! 🔥 Iloilo is lucky to have Megaworld too; they really built their township so nicely. Can't wait to go there for Dinagyang ♥️

[@proud995s]

TIKALON, ILOILO HAS NO AYALA MALL

Kung tutuusin mas modern ang BGC at Makati Kaysa sa New York. Kasi halos puro bago ang mga buildings at establishments sa BGC at Makati lalo na sa BGC. Sa New York Kasi karamihan ng mga buildings nila ay mga old o luma na. Mga 1920's to 1970's ang karamihan at nirerestore at nirerenovate lang nila ang mga ito. Pati nga subway ng new York lumang luma na at kailangan na din ng major renovation. Pati mga tulay nila. Mailelevel ang BGC sa Singapore. Kasi modern din ang Singapore. Meron din silang mga luma pero mas marami silang modern.

Have u been to NYC?

[@Naruto-u2k3n]

Mabilis magluma ang building dito kasi sa usok taz humid na lugar pa dugyot agad building ,dagdagan pa ng mga tao kung san lang niluluwa bubblegum sa daan 😂

[@Sugbofood]

They are all NY inspired copycat . Imagine 1920 against 2024

Makati is not people friendly. It's just a bunch busy streets and tall buildings. Not to mention the noisy and smelly traffic. What are people suppose to do there. BGC has wide sidewalks, open spaces, green spaces, trees for shades, sport parks and pocket parks for children amidst a variety of stores and restaurants. It has concerts, art displays and fireworks. It's safe, bright and beautifully decorated for the holidays so people enjoy walking around and taking pictures with friends and family.

[@lakwatsatour]

It appears as if BGC was built using the lessons learned from the mistakes of Makati. BGC is really well planned and has been able to apply and include what modern communities around the world have.

[@charliesue8197]

@@lakwatsatour because the design of BGC came from the urban planner from UK and HK. Over 22 countries invested in bgc

[@Filipinoshospitality]

Why you compare

[@JB-bi6vm]

Makati has a lot more character. Areas like Poblacion tips the scale with its various artisan; restaurants, cafes, up and coming artist. Yes, BGC is nice and much better planned but it doesn't have the soul of Makati. BGC is a manufactured city meanwhile Makati is a city with grassroots.

[@masterbalay]

ALABANG pa rin. Yang BGC na yan kaya lang nagboom ay dahil malapit sa MAKATI.

[@henrytagactac3136]

❤️ Wow! ⛵

[@bromartyt7143]

GRABEH BGC SUPER GANDA DYAN

[@proud995s]

wALANG LUXURY STORES SA BGC TINALO PA NG CEBU

[@HectorJuatco]

BGC is mire easily accessible than Ayala Makati. Just cross the street from embo district BGC kaagad. While sa Makati sasakay ka pa from poblacion bago ka makarating sa Ayala.

[@lakwatsatour]

Oo nga noh. Dahil sa comment mo I realize na may BGC bus running around BGC where you can use Mastercard or Beep Card pero si Makati na matagal nang nag-exist kesa kay BGC ay hindi man lang nakapag-establish ng bus system around the city or at least around Makati CBD, naunahan pa! 😭

[@yutuberboy]

hangang kelan yung mga military vehicle display ? this coming weekend (14 and 15 ) meron pa kaya ? thanks

[@lakwatsatour]

Sayang po, pang-isang araw lang po sya para sa BONIFACIO DAY na ginaganap taon-taon sa November 30.

Filipinos should understand the difference between real economy vs eye-pleasing fabricated facilities. There is a reason why modern looking cities does not equate to a thriving economy and how this can be deceiving to one's perspective especially to those who know nothing about the world of economy and finance. Makati was built to be the financial capital of the country. To host the country's biggest banks and brands. BGC was built to cater young and creative companies balancing lifestyle in it. That's why BGC has large number of IT companies and more touristy vibes in it. Both cities has different purpose. Makati lies heavily on hosting financial institution HQs because of the city's prestigious branding. It also remains as a gateway for international firms entering the country. Thus, maintaining its title as the country's prime location. This title won't be dethroned anytime as it's very unlikely for the biggest local and international banks to relocate to other CBDs. BGC, on the otherhand, despite of the clout and foot traffics, they only have the minority of these banking institutions. In other words, BGC is like a branch out of the companies coming from Makati. Thus, making the developments of the two CBDs complementary. therefore: BGC - modern and balanced lifestyle for young, explorative, and creative firms (which is attractive to younger generations) Makati - Conservative and formal setting for big and well-established business (business focused)

Traffic 😢😢

[@JoeyZee-vs4kr]

I hope the GOVERNMENT will let ALL of Manila to be managed by the PRIVATE SECTOR so it can be clean and livable like BGC. 😊

[@lakwatsatour]

True 💯😭 O di kaya ay we will vote someone na galing sa private sector at well traveled na may experience na sa pag-apply ng nakita nilang maganda sa ibang bansa at inapply dito sa atin. Kakauwi ko lang galing Taiwan at nasasaktan akong makita kung gaano kawalang kwenta ang gobyerno natin kompara sa kanila, simpleng sidewalk lang ay di pa ma-maintain ng maayos 😭.

[@charliesue8197]

@@lakwatsatour To add to your comment, yung former mayor of taguig na si Tiñga kasama ang tatay nya ang nag hire ng urban planner from UK and HK. dati ang design ng BGC puro circles then nakipag partner ang BCDA o Bases Convertion and Development Authority sa mga private developers like Ayala, Megaworld etc. binago yung city centre na ngayon ay high street. well travelled din talaga si Tiñga abroad lalo na nung pumunta sya ng hk

[@zzzzzsleeping]

Soon BGC will be old and boring (just like Makati dethroned by BGC) - another city will come out and the cycle continues.

[@ArghelSebastianMamaid]

Makati has never been dethroned

[@JB-bi6vm]

BGC is a manufactured city that lacks the soul and character Makati has. In Poblacion there are loads of artisan, restaurants, cafes, etc. BGC is well planned city compared to Makati but it doesn't have the grassroots of Makati.

[@cigarettes_and_lollipops]

yeah, just like escolta. escolta used to be the financial hub in old times then it's now shadow of their glorious past but i wish if dumating man yung panahon na yan, ma-preserve pa din yung ganda ng makati, yung escolta kasi na-detriorate na

[@attack974]

yes, and Cebu will dethrone them

[@TheMythicalCreatures-ud8ob]

Nice edit, actually Bgc is a Slum, and theirs lot of Informal settlers Inside very poor city, Jakarta, Bangkok Kuala Lumpur is the Best, there is no Slum on their City and Skylines😊
