About
This Venice-inspired mall draws thousands of travelers for its fine architecture and replica of Italy’s Grand Canal—the main centerpiece here. In this open-air mall, you can get on a traditional gondola ride with singing gondoliers, hang a love lock along Ponte de Amore Bridge, and roam around the bazaars and novelty shops for food and unique souvenirs. It's also a pet-friendly mall so your furry friends can tag along on your shopping spree. Head down on weekday mornings to beat the crowds and lines for the gondola ride. Explore this mall on a city tour of Manila's most photogenic spots, which might include a stop here. – Tripadvisor

The mall is Venetian inspired, and so even the music was Italian. A romantic place to visit. The gondola ride can be a great way to enjoy for couples who doesn’t mind the price.
The mall offers good views, and the restaurants were great.

We arrived as a tourist group 7000 km away and our narrow-minded guide, instead of showing more historical sights, dragged us to show this plasterboard misunderstanding.
entertainment for local children for the weekend. for tourists nothing at all. We have a similar absurdity called Magic city in Tashkent. Clumsy, cramped, a lot of people and not an ounce of anything useful.

Coming here is like being transported to a far-away land - Venice! The mall is beautiful. Details are fascinating. A lot of different restaurants. The mall is mostly outside and set up around the 'lake'. The Gondola rides are worth every penny. The Gondoliers make it fun and memorable. I highly recommend you visit if you're ever in Manila.

The entrance of the grand canal mall was more appealing for me. They are big store all glass and i find them fancy.
The mall itself is just "fine" and its my first time so i road on gondola for 400 pesos and its not worth it but again its "fine"
i hope they can improve their sound system too. its good they play french songs but the quality of sound is bad

Such a cool concept for a mall here in the Philippines. Just like those in Macau & Vegas. Perfect spot for strolling, (window) shopping, eating & they have a movie theater too! Gondola ride looks cool but we didn’t try it cause it rained. Those Gondola staff go above and beyond while paddling - they take photos of their guests and they sing too in Italian. We had so much fun.

It is one of the most beautiful mall in Manila. It was desiged by an Italian achitech based on famous Venice theme. It is considered as most romantic mall in Philippine. There is a big canal in the centre where guests can take gondola ride with gondoliers singing songs reminding of Venice. There is also replica of famous Rialto Bridge and St. Mark's Square.
Beside there are many restaurants, cafes, bars and shops of international and local brands. The restaurants facing canal have got a lovely view.

The mall is very well designed and it is quite beautiful for pictures considering that there isn't anything like it here in the Philippines. The canal is the highlight, but there isn't much to do at the mall itself. They tried to put some unique Italian restaurants, but they all look like they aren't doing well. So then they brought in the typical mall chains, which do better, but it's not special. There aren't many stores either and no toy store, which they definitely need for kids. The boat is expensive, but it's worth it if you don't think you will ever go to Venice. :)

Sparkling and garish, the Grand Canal is lined with mid-price, branded restaurants. If Venice was built by Mattel, it would look something like this. The pool tiles lining the canal detract from the illusion. Note: international travellers should beware that some restaurants don't accept credit cats, for unknown reasons, and there don't seem to be any ATMs in the whole complex. We had to go to an on-site money changer to pay for two iced teas.

A mall with Venice vibes. You can ride a boat inside the mall for a fee. There are various restaurants here and sometimes there are live bands so you can enjoy good food and good music as you enjoy the Italy vibes. Some restobars are open till morning. The place is nearby offices and condos. There are UVs going to Ayala and Cainta at the parking.
