Awaken Amazing at Ayala Mall Solenad: Mixing Traditional with New Ways to Celebrate Christmas!

It was my first time coming at Ayala Mall Solenad in Laguna. It has a Bonifacio High Street vibe but more chill and breezy because it is near Tagaytay.

Families and friends having their bonding time were a common sight on my visit on a Saturday evening.

You can already feel the holiday season with Solenad’s decorations and activities around the mall. They will have the annual Festival of Lights and a 3D mapping display.
