Sm Seaside City Cebu is a large shopping mall that opened on November 27, 2015. Currently it is the 3rd biggest shopping mall in the Philippines and 9th in the world. The mall has a unique architectural design that is very different from a typical shopping malls. Some features of the shopping mall are the rooftop sky park, the 150-meter viewing tower and lastly this one caught my attention, the 21x21 meter cube located outside the mall. With its unique and amazing architectural design, once you see it you will be amaze on how they able to build something like that. The cube is a symbol of strength and stability and also a tribute to the resilience of the cebuanos to be specific and to the Filipino people in general.

I was able to visit sm seaside when we had our Educational plant tour in Cebu. After visiting some of companies which is related to the course that i was taking up our teacher gives us time to explore and enjoy the shopping mall.

The mall was really big and exploring the malls vicinity was very tiring. After we finished exploring the mall we decided to come back to the van that we rented but unfortunately we had a hard time finding the door where we enter because the mall has many entrance. We go out to the mall and enter again several times to find the entrance where our van is and after several attempt we finally found it. Though it was very tiring but it was also fun.

(We didn't able to get a photo inside the mall because our time was limited and our attention was focused on the cube)

Though our time was limited but still we really had a great time, it was a wonderful experience and a wonderful memories as well. Hope to visit the place again.
