THE PLACE CALLED "DIVISORIA"

These two intersecting and interesting roads in MANILA CITY are locations of the most unusual but amazingly accepted things and tolerated happenings. 

Some are good but majority should be CORRECTED!

The streets are named after two personalities who have major contributions for our country 

and etched indelible marks in history.

DR. JOSE RIZAL is our NATIONAL HERO.

CLARO M RECTO is dubbed as "THE ACADEMICIAN".

A former SENATOR, a prolific WRITER 

and a great STATESMAN. 

C.M. RECTO AVENUE leads to one of the most popular shopping destinations for people looking for 

 low-priced goods.

The place called DIVISORIA.

One noon time after awhile, I was once again strolling the busy place both for sellers and buyers of low-priced wide variety of items...

How to get there? There are many ways.

1. Ride a TAXI. Just tell the driver to bring you to DIVISORIA.

2. Ride the LRT line 1, alight at either CARRIEDO or DOROTEO JOSE STATIONS. Then you can walk along RECTO AVE. leading to DIVISORIA or you can ride a JEEPNEY still along RECTO AVE. going to DIVISORIA.

3. Ride the LRT LINE 2, alight RECTO STATION. Then you can just walk or ride a jeepney going to DIVISORIA. It will take you 10 to 15 minutes walk.

4. From CUBAO area or PASAY ROTONDA TAFT area and other parts of Metro Manila, you can ride a JEEPNEY bound for DIVISORIA.

As I went on with my JOURNEY, another popular shopping mall in DIVISORIA, the 168 MALL...

happy faces despite being subjected to high temperature and scorching heat of the sun

There is another newly-opened mall infront of the 168 SHOPPING MALL but I failed to take a picture since I was already looking for a place where I can satisfy my hunger and thirst. But when I was already full, I forgot to go back to the place since I was scheduled to visit another place...

I will surely come back to DIVISORIA and share again with you my JOURNEY..
