Alabang is located south of Manila and is popular for its upscale shopping centers and posh communities. But don’t let the skyscrapers fool you. Behind the tall building are lush greens so it’s perfect for city explorers who appreciate a good mix of modernity and Mother Nature.
City living, while not as talked about compared to the country’s spectacular beaches and other tourist spots, has its perks. For instance, Alabang has a wide range of developments–from shopping malls, to office towers, condominiums, hotels and dining destinations. It’s a quick getaway from home sans the crowd and heavy traffic common in bigger cities.
The closest airports to Alabang are Manila Domestic Airport and Ninoy Aquino International Airport. From there, the most convenient way to get to Alabang is by taking the taxi.
