Just like everybody else here in Davao City, I am so excited for the opening of our new SM Lanang Premier this Friday, September 28. This is the second SM mall in the city but is definitely a high-end and world-class one unlike the first SM City Davao situated along Quimpo Boulevard in Matina.
There's so much to look forward to this major mall that stands on a 10-hectare lot that used to be the Lanang golf course. The architectural design alone is different from the usual SM City malls and I learned this is a green building having utilized eco-friendly materials and construction procedures.
Secondly, it has a Sky Garden that will feature a concert area and dancing fountain. It is also here where some fine dining restaurants will be located.
Thirdly, SM Lanang Premier will have an SMX Convention Center which is the second in the country. The first is in Pasay City, Metro Manila.
The IMAX Cinema is another thing Davaoenos are excited to experience. IMAX boasts of the world's most powerful film experience, a far cry from what people are used to in the past.
What I'm most happy about is the fact that this new major mall is very near my home. It's just one tricycle ride away, a 5-minute drive by car and can actually be reached by foot if you're not in a hurry.
And what I'm sure about is that I'll be there on the opening day and in the coming days to experience this new SM Premier shopping complex. I also look forward to watching entertainment shows with my kids there.
Life is good and truly, life is here in Davao City! I couldn't ask for more.
