Marikina is known for being the shoe capital of the
Philippines, but Marikina offers more than that if you really have the time to
go around the city. One of the places that Marikina is proud of is the
RiverBanks Center. RiverBanks Center is located at A. Bonifacio Avenue and can
easily be access by any public transportation.
A variety of events could be found in RiverBank
Center especially this Holiday season. RiverBank Center is proud to present
their Christmassaya; fun and more shopping waits at the Grand Carnival,
Shopalooza Bazaar, Outlet stores and the some other things that would be fun to
do with the whole family.
Besides shopping and fun, there also a place for the
people who loves museums and gallery. You can find in RiverBank Centers
extraordinary museums like the Joey Velasco Gallery, the Philippine Science
Centrum for the kid and kids at heart, Museum of Miniatures, and the Spirit of
Belen (a private Belen collection)
