Ayala Mall

Ayala is one of the well-known shopping centers in Cebu and was opened in 1994 as a branch from Ayala in Manila. The terrace was finished in 2008, which was an expansion with a beautiful garden. With around 200 stores inside and a grocery store in on the ground floor you’ll have plenty to shop through, though the food court is not as big as the SM malls. Ayala does also tend to be on the pricey side because of all the exclusive boutiques.

Tip: Ayala is open 7 days a week, except on Christmas and New years when it is closed in the morning. The mall is located in Cebu Business Park in Cebu City.
