If you need to chill and have a
mini food trip with family and friends, where do we usually go? Where can you
get free air-condition experience? The
automatic answer to that is the Mall. We have a couple of malls here in Gensan,
and recently another one is added to our choices.
After a mass held by no other than
Bishop Dinualdo Gutierrez, complete with a ribbon-cutting ceremony that was
attended by the city’s VIPs, KCC suppliers, clients and tenants and many other
important figures, Veranza Mall celebrated its opening with a bang.
Veranza is said to be a GREEN mall.
It has transparent roofing that allows natural sunlight to shine during the
day, thus, saving the ever consuming electricity. The building’s structure also
screams nature, and more than 800 plants and trees dominate the mall’s three
floors. This includes its ROOF GARDEN, which contributes greatly to the
environment.
Lo and Behold! It has two outdoor
waterfalls which is the first of its kind here in Mindanao. Located right
across the KCC Mall, it also has an Activity Area or Atrium which is ideal for
indoor activities, ceremonies and concerts. This is where the blessing
ceremonies on its opening day took place. Veranza also has an AL FRESCO dining
area, which accommodates the country’s high and popular local bands and other
performers to perform live.
The building which is flanked by
the mighty waterfalls on the side and is connected to the mall by a bridge is
their five-floor parking lot.
Veranza is said to rival the other
malls of Gensan. Looking at its building structure, design and purpose, we
might say that SM has found its match. And like any other mall out there,
Veranza has its own branded stores. Such as Vans, Lacoste, Swiss Gear, Coffee
Bean, Payless, Alberto and many more. With all these kinds of brands in one
roof, Team Veranza earns a point above Team SM. But who says SM is going to sit
and nurse its flattened and ruffled feathers? Let’s just wait for its mighty
and well planned come back, if they have one. That would make living in Gensan
a little more fun and interesting.
It is a huge mall with huge,
well-known merchandise. It is a beautiful structure that wants to help somehow
in saving Mother Earth, and it has these awesome waterfalls that you can stare
at all day. KCC is just on the other side, so you don’t have to fret and worry
about your grocery. It all has its benefits; the disadvantages have yet to make
themselves known. So, have you visited Veranza yet?
