Glorietta is a large shopping mall in the Ayala Center, Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines. The mall is owned by the Zobel de Ayala family and operated through its holding company, the Ayala Corporation. The mall is divided into five sections (named Glorietta 1–5) and contains many shops and restaurants, as well as cinemas, a gym, arcades and a large central activity center, often used to stage events. Glorietta 1-4 is integrated with the nearby Greenbelt Mall, SM Makati, Rustan's Makati and The Landmark, a department store. Glorietta 5 is fully detached, located in front of Hotel InterContinental Manila and beside Rustan's Department Store. The tenants affected by the October 19, 2007 explosion will be given an option to relocate there. ==History== Glorietta was originally a park surrounded by establishments, and was used as a location by Viva Films for its youth-oriented movie ''Hotshots''. The park, with its outdoor stage for event hosting, was built in the 1970s as part of the wider ''Makati Commercial Center'' complex, which included several independent small malls and the Quad cinemas plus retail outlets - some having been opened since the mid-1960s. In the early 1990s the Zobel De Ayala family decided to renovate Glorietta, the Quad mall, Greenbelt and the rest of the Makati Commercial Center compound - then dubbed ''The Center Makati'' - and thus all the establishments were merged into a whole new development named the Ayala Center in 1990. The plan was to convert Glorietta into an indoor facility and integrate it with existing nearby buildings as well as newly constructed ones such as the QUAD cinemas. The Glorietta mall was opened in 1992 with a gross leasable area of 250,000 m², envisioned as one of the largest malls in the Philippines. By the mid- and late 1990s, Glorietta gained popularity as a premier mall. It has an air-conditioned atrium with water features, an indoor children's playground, and an activity center that hosts concerts and shows. Other new buildings were also constructed between 1999 and 2005, making Glorietta bigger than its original construction plan. In 2010, Glorietta 1 and 2 were demolished for redevelopment with a new mall, hotel (Holiday Inn and Fairmont Suites) BPO offices and condos (Park Terraces and Garden Terraces). Glorietta 1 was opened in November 5, 2012 with a new activity center, as Glorietta 2 opened in December 7. Glorietta 3 is planned to be demolished to finalize a redeveloped Glorietta mall complex, hailed as the crown jewel of Ayala. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Glorietta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
