SM Mall of Asia
Pasay City
SM Mall of Asia, is a shopping mall in Bay City, Pasay, Philippines. It is located within the SM Central Business Park, a reclaimed area within Manila Bay, and the southern end of Epifanio de los Santos Avenue, owned and developed by SM Prime. Mall of Asia is the largest shopping mall in the Philippines, the second-largest in Southeast Asia, and the sixth-largest in the world. It currently occupies 16 hectares (40 acres) of land area and a gross floor area of approximately 589,891 m2 (6,349,530 sq ft), and offers 46,647 m2 (502,100 sq ft) of floor area space for conventions and social functions. It attracts a daily average foot traffic of about 200,000 people.
Following the mall's opening in 2006, it caused several smaller shopping malls nearby to close, such as the Pearl Plaza and the Uniwide Coastal Mall, both located in nearby Barangay Tambo, Parañaque. However, this is changing with the rise of newer malls and similar structures such as the Ayala Malls Manila Bay and WMall Macapagal.
