Pasay City in Asia

The Mall of Asia was constructed and planned within the reclamation area, west of Roxas Boulevard in Pasay City, aptly nicknamed "Bay City". It is built on 19.5 hectares of reclaimed land and has a gross floor area of 386,224 square meters which is really large. The mall is located at the southmost tip of Epifanio de los Santos Avenue and  a roundabout was constructed in the front of the mall with a huge bronze globe similar to Universal Studios. An esplanade was constructed at the back of the mall where it served as the observation center for the First World Pyro Olympics in December 2005, which were a great success.
