Robinsons Place Rises in the Heart of Bicol, The Pilgrim City of Naga


Naga City, Bicol - Robinsons Place Naga opened its doors to Bicolanos last August 15, 2017 and is probably the most iconic landmark to date in Maogmang Lugar for travelers on the road coming to and from Manila. Located along Roxas Avenue, corner Almeda HIghway in Brgy. Triangulo, the complex is a head-turner and has an imposing structure that adds to the cosmopolitan living of Naguenos.

Mall Hours: 10:00 am to 9:00 PM
The mall is easily accessible from major establishments and institutions in the city as well as the Bicol Central Station.

Aside from being Bicol's center of commerce, the city is considered a Pilgrim City. The local's ardent and indescribable devotion to Our Lady of Penafrancia, "Ina", the miraculous wooden statue of the Blessed Virgin, has inspired Marian devotees all over the globe. Due to Ina's countless miracles, millions of devotions, pilgrims, local and foreign tourists alike, flock to the city every third Sunday of September to celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Penafrancia.

IT'S A MALL WORLD AFTER ALL

In time for the annual Penafrancia Festival, a new mall rises in the heart of Naga, just around 3 kilometers away from Our Lady of Penafrancia's Basilica Minore. Shoppers can go to and from the mall via jeepney, buses or vans and other means of transportation. Guests and devotees can also recharge with different options available. There's a wide variety of retail stores, some are even new and firsts in Bicol, plus restaurants and entertainment facilities all at your fingertips.

The mixed-use comoplex, comprises of a three-level commercial building annexed to a two-level Robinsons Cyberate Naga Office building (for PEZA Accreditation) and two Robinsons Lands' successful brand hotels-Summit and Go Hotels which are both now under construction. The mall has  basement parking and an open parking space for private vehicles.

Daiso, Payless Shoesource, Albertos, G&G are just a few of the newest boutiques and one of the firsts in Bicol. Uniqlo perhaps is the most awaited store which will also to open soon along with Guess, Converse, Kamiseta, Bayo, and many others.

Robinsons Place Naga pays homage to homegrown brands that have made the newest mall in the city their new home. Some local brands that we have patronized has continued to stepped up their game when it comes to this industry. It's such an inspiring feat when Bicolano stores level up and continue to surprise locals with their capacity to go side by side with national brands.

The al fresco area is the most unique part of the mall. You can hear artificial sounds of bird chirping making the experience more relaxing while you enjoy some of the best local food stops like Bigg's Diner, Triboo Grill etc. and some known national and internal brands of restaurants.

For a wide variety of meal options, check out the 300-seater food court. Smokey Minaluto, Naga Garden, Ice Blinker, Western Plate just to name a few, are our local favorites and will surely satisfy your hunger.




With Robinsons' anchor tenants, such as the Robinsons Department Store, Robinsons, Supermarket, Handyman, and Robinsons Applicance, mixed with more features, this newest mall is surely set to be Naga's favorite hangout place and shopping destination. Located inside the Department Stores is also one stop payment center for your basic utilities.





KEEPING THINGS LOCAL

Robinsons Land Corporation's newest mall is all about keeping things local. Aside from Bicol brands inside the mall, it's unique and heavily detailed interior uses Bicolandia's iconic gabi and pili nut to complement and promote the rich culture and heritage of the Bicolanos.

The mall's ceiling features a large, leaf-shaped decor reminiscent of gabi (taro) leaves lit up with green, LED Lights with white lighting that illuminate the grande entrance.


The leaf motif continues to the atrium, whose ceiling also has gargantuan leaf patterns with glowing lights that brighten the activity area. Complimenting these ceiling designs are green posts and vertical gardening interspersed throughout the Mall Interiors.

A spacious 2,000 plus square meter activity area located at the Mall's Atrium area is the ideal venue for shows and events. It's like a 360-degree turn where all guests from the mall can just run to the center and enjoy the show.









There's  the Tree of Life, an imposing structure at the al fresco area. Made of fiberglass with a smooth, glossy-white finish, the 15-meter sculpture by Jefre Manuel, features the iconic gabi leaf, paying homepage to the root crop that has catapulted Bicol to the country's culinary map.


Such motifs create a sense of regional pride and a homey feel for families and friends gathering inside Robinsons Place Naga, while indulging on favorite mall activities whether shopping, dining, entertainment and a lot more.

Located at the third level is the pampering area called the Wellness Zone, tenants like Dermcare, Nailandia, Skin Perfect, Evegate Spalon, Nails Glow to name a few will surely treat you like a VIP with their various services. 


Aside from the entertainment, business and dining feats of the mall, Robinsons definitely gives importance to the convenience of Bicolanos in terms of providing services beyond their usual role. Robinsons Malls Lingkod Pinoy Center is a public service program of Robinsons Land Corporation bringing together government agencies most relevant to the community where the mall is located. PRC, SSS, Pag-ibig, PhilHealth, PhilPost, Tesda service centers will soon be serving Bicolanos and this is indeed a plus when it comes to convenience.

I'm most excited with the PRC Service Center. No need to travel to Legazpi to renew my licenses.
