SM MOA Eye Giant Ferris Wheel: Newest Tourist Destination
The biggest and tallest Ferris Wheel in the Philippines has finally arrived and now rolls over western sky of Manila bay behind, albeit slowly. The giant Ferris wheel is situated right at the back of SM Mall of Asia, most popularly known as SM MOA Esplanade. When I got to see it first hand, I could't help but to reminisce of the magnificent sight of Singapore Flyer, the world's largest Giant Observation Wheel. For one thing, they both turn very slowly. Like Singapore Flyer, MOA Eye Ferris Wheel doesn't stop to unload and load passengers. The slow speed of the Ferris Wheel allows passengers who had completed the cycle to alight and for waiting passengers to ride with little help from the crew.
MOA Eye Ferris Wheel has 36 passenger cars. Surely, lots of you who would come to MOA will be tempted to go and try it. You simply couldn't resist the attraction. So here's the important answer to your question. The fee is Php 150.00 per person, and it's good only for one complete revolution. Before you frown, let me say that you get to enjoy it because it takes almost 9 minutes for passengers to complete one cycle inside MOA Eye Ferris Wheel car.
So, get there. Enjoy the ride!
How to get to MOA Giant Eye Ferris Wheel? It's big so you get to see it from afar when you're within SM MOA complex. For driving directions, commuting guide by jeepney, bus and LRT/MRT train, go to How To Get To Mall Of Asia Or MOA

Bicol Express Train Update
PNR Bicol Express Train trip to Albay has been symbolically laid out to the railway route map with the test run conducted on December 7 from PNR Tutuban Central Station that ended in Ligao City.

How To Commute To Newport City & Resort World Manila
The nearest LRT-1 Station to Newport City and Resort World Manila, commute wise, is EDSA Station. The nearest MRT-3 Station, commute wise, is Taft Station. These stations are situated at EDSA corner Taft Avenue, most popularly known as Pasay Rotunda. There are two ways you can get to Newport City and Resort World Manila from Pasay Rotunda on public transportation:
Convenient way to commute to Newport City - One ride by NAIA Shuttle Bus with its terminal located at Pasay Rotunda. Ride this bus and alight at Newport City. The bus will stop at NAIA-3 then it will go to Newport City. UPDATE: 2 bus stops now in Newport City. Read new post so that you know where to alight. Go to How to get to Newport City destinations via Airport Loop. If you don't know the location of NAIA Shuttle in Pasay Rotunda, CLICK HERE. Newport City & Resort World Manila is situated opposite NAIA-3.
Commute to Newport City by jeepneys - By two jeepney rides you can get to Resort World Manila. From MRT-3 TAft Station and LRT-1 EDSA Station, go to the north bound lane of EDSA and wait for a jeepney with "Nichols Andrews Ave NAIA-3" sign. The loading area is past MRT Station towards Aurora Blvd flyover that you see from the train station. You can also get inside Genesis Bus Terminal and look for the terminal of these jeepneys.
UPDATE 27 SEP 2015: The direction below (From MRT & LRT) is no longer recommended because you can now take the Newport Free Shuttle from unloading area of jeepneys from Pasay Rotunda/MRT/LRT to Resorts World Manila and other buildings and destinations inside Newport City.

Christmas Lanes 2011: To Quiapo Via Ayala Blvd
This Christmas Lane can be used by private motorists from Roxas Blvd, Mabini, T.M. Kalaw, Padre Burgos and Taft Avenue. Christmas Lanes are known also as Mabuhay Lanes and can be used as alternate routes anytime of the year to avoid bottlenecks in main thoroughfares.
Ayala Blvd is the road next to T.M. Kalaw if you're driving on Taft Avenue's northbound lane. That means you're coming from Pedro Gil and U.N. Avenue.
From Taft Avenue - Turn right onto Ayala Blvd.
From Roxas Boulevard - Turn right onto T.M. Kalaw, turn left on Taft Ave (LRT runs above Taft), then turn right onto Ayala Blvd.
From Mabini Street - Right to Kalaw, left on Taft and turn right onto Ayala Blvd.
From Padre Burgos Street - Take the lane under road signs that read "Malacanang", "Finance Rd" and "Ayala Blvd" which is to the right of Padre Burgos. Keep driving straight and cross Taft Ave.
Drive on the middle of Ayala Blvd all the way, cross Pasig River via Ayala Bridge. Immediately change lane to the left and turn left on Carlos Palanca Sr Street, the first intersection with traffic lights.
Carlos Palanca Sr goes directly to Quiapo. Check if you can park your car along Carlos Palanca before doing so. It might be "Tow-Away Zone" by now. Or you can turn right onto the service road headed to Quezon Blvd where a Pay Parking compound is situated somewhere before pedestrian overpass. What I do whenever I go to Quiapo is to park at customers' parking of Andok's Restaurant, which is located past pedestrian overpass before C.M. Recto Avenue. I would have some meal then I walk towards Quiapo Church.

Christmas Lanes 2011: From EDSA To Greenhills
Christmas Lanes are alternate routes created by MMDA to help private motorists get around Metro Manila to avoid traffic during Christmas Season. Also known as Mabuhay Lanes, these alternate routes are also used all year round.
Here's how to get to Greenhills from EDSA via one of the Christmas Lanes. Take southbound lane of EDSA and turn right onto Connecticut. If you're not familiar, here are the landmarks. MRT-3 Santolan Station is the nearest train station. Drive past MRT-3 Station. First road to the right of EDSA next to MRT-3 Station is Annapolis Street. Drive past Annapolis Street and turn right onto the next street which is Connecticut. There's a Caltex Gasoline Station at the right corner of EDSA and Connecticut. Opposite Caltex, at the left corner is KFC. Approximate distance between Annapolis Street and Connecticut Street is 550 meters. Drive on Connecticut up to the next junction. Connecticut makes left while a short road appears to the right. You can take Connecticut all the way to its other end which is in Ortigas Avenue. Turn right onto Ortigas Avenue. Keep driving straight and turn right onto Wilson Street and look for a parking entrance. What I do is to take Club Filipino which is past Wilson Street. In Club Filipino I turn right onto the next street to Ortigas Avenue inside Greenhills Shopping Center Complex and immediately right there is the parking area. Back in Connecticut, you can also make right at the road to the right that I've mentioned earlier. Then make right and them left towards Greenhills Shopping Center and follow the road where a lot of Parking Buildings are located along the street.

Christmas Lanes 2011: From EDSA To Baclaran
Here's how to get to Baclaran via new Christmas Lane also known as Mabuhay Lanes.
Take EDSA's southbound lane and drive all the way past Magallanes to Pasay driving on lanes under "Baclaran" road signs. Take the "left turn flyover" next to Magallanes flyover. This flyover is bound for NAIA and Domestic Airport and will take you to Aurora Blvd (Pasay) also known as Tramo. Drive all the way to the other end of Aurora Blvd and turn right onto Airport Road also known as Andrews Avenue in which Aurora Blvd ends. In Airport Road, drive all way past Domestic Road, a main road perpendicular to the left and then cross Quirino Avenue, a major intersection with traffic lights, and then turn right onto the service road of Roxas Blvd.
Now, you're headed to Redemptorist Church and Redemptorist Road. Turn right onto Redemptorist Road and head towards the gate of Redemptorist Church, make right and park your car right there.
Here's a tip. Parking your car inside Baclaran Church is safe alright, but getting out is a headache because of traffic. What I do every time I go to Baclaran to buy some stuff is to park in front of McDonald's. I would have some snack, leave the car there, do some shopping and bring them all back to my car. I sometimes hired pedicab when I have too much to carry. That way, getting out of Baclaran is a breeze. I just take either service road of Roxas Blvd and turn right onto EDSA or take Roxas Blvd on my way home to QC.

In Airport Road, drive all way past Domestic Road, a main road perpendicular to the left and then cross Quirino Avenue, a major intersection with traffic lights, and then turn right onto the service road of Roxas Blvd.
Now, you're headed to Redemptorist Church and Redemptorist Road. Turn right onto Redemptorist Road and head towards the gate of Redemptorist Church, make right and park your car right there.
Here's a tip. Parking your car inside Baclaran Church is safe alright, but getting out is a headache because of traffic. What I do every time I go to Baclaran to buy some stuff is to park in front of McDonald's. I would have some snack, leave the car there, do some shopping and bring them all back to my car. I sometimes hired pedicab when I have too much to carry. That way, getting out of Baclaran is a breeze. I just take either service road of Roxas Blvd and turn right onto EDSA or take Roxas Blvd on my way home to QC.

Driving Directions To Newport City
Newport City is home to a luxury casino resort called Resort World Manila, two world class hotels by the name of Maxims and Marriott, a popular night club and one of the most popular entertainment destinations in Manila called Republiq, a mall of prestigious international brands which is Newport Mall, state of the art theater of Newport Ultra Cinema, a cyberpark and countless residential villas. It is located at the corner of Sales Road and Andrews Avenue through which visitors from far distant locations pass before taking the main road to the commercial hub. It is accessible via Skyway through NAIA-3 Exit and a short drive away from Fort Bonifacio Global City. Here are directional guides on how to go to Newport City from different locations in Metro Manila and nearby provinces. See map below this post.
Route #1
From Caloocan, Monumento, Malabon, Navotas, Pampanga, Bulacan, Tarlac and other Northern Luzon provinces.
Option 1: Via EDSA - This is the route to take from EDSA's southbound lane. From the provinces mentioned, take the NLEX. From NLEX take EDSA's south bound lane or the lane going to Makati, Cubao, Roxas Boulevard and Baclaran. In NLEX, pass under the EDSA Balintawak/Cloverleaf Bridge, change lane to the right and as soon as you drove past EDSA bridge, turn right onto the dedicated lane going to EDSA's south bound lane. From Caloocan, Malabon, and Navotas, take EDSA. Stay on EDSA and drive all the way to Makati where you will turn left onto SLEX aka President Osmena Highway via Magallanes Interchange. Stay to the middle of EDSA and pass through EDSA-Quezon flyover, EDSA-Kamuning flyover, Cubao Underpass, EDSA-Santolan flyover, EDSA-Ortigas flyover, EDSA-Shaw Underpass, Guadalupe Bridge and EDSA-Ayala Tunnel. After Ayala Tunnel is EDSA-Magallanes Interchange.
Choose the lane with "Alabang SLEX" road sign. It's the flyover to the right of Magallanes Bridge. In the flyover, choose the lane with "Alabang SLEX" road sign above it which is to your left. So, as soon as you get onto the flyover stay to the left because a lane going to Manila with road sign that reads "Manila" will occur at flyover. And you must avoid getting onto that lane. Now in Osmena Highway, avoid getting onto the Entry ramp of skyway. But stay to the rightmost lane of Osmena Highway. Approximately 2 kilometers past Magallanes Interchange, and before the Skyway Crossover Interchange (shown in second photo), turn right onto the service road going to Sales Road, the main road that runs through beneath Skyway NAIA-3 Exit ramp. Drive into Sales Road past "The Air Force Course" gate. Once you get to Sales Road, drive further underneath Skyway ramp until the road turn right and road name changes to Andrews Avenue. Before Sales Road turns right, Newport Boulevard appears to the right. As of this writing, Newport Boulevard is one way towards Sales. But they might change it into two way so I suggest to observe as you get near it and use this road. Otherwise, keep driving straight on Andrews Avenue and then turn right onto Resort Drive, the main road of Newport City from Andrews Avenue.
Option 2: Via C5 - From Northern Luzon provinces mentioned above, exit NLEX via Mindanao Avenue Exit. Take Mindanao Avenue - NLEX Road and eventually Mindanao Avenue. Pass through Quirino Tunnel. Note: These are all in one main road from NLEX. Drive all the way past Tandang Sora and cross Congressional Avenue, a wide main road (with traffic lights). From EDSA Caloocan or Monumento, take Quirino Avenue towards Novaliches but turn right onto Tandang Sora, then turn right again onto Mindanao Avenue and cross Congressional Avenue. Immediately make a U-Turn to get back towards Congressional Avenue. Turn right onto Congressional. (Note: This direction is by virtue of the fact that as of this writing, there are no left turns in Mindanao and Congressional intersection.) Now in Congressional, cross Visayas Avenue, another wide road intersecting Congressional Avenue (with traffic lights). Your next turn is Tandang Sora Avenue. Remember: Tandang Sora Avenue is approximately 625 meters from Visayas Avenue. A lot of motorists turn right onto Tandang Sora. There are many road signs pointing to Tandang Sora which is a little bit narrow and runs diagonal from Congressional. Now, turn right onto Tandang Sora Avenue. Next main intersection to cross is Commonwealth Avenue, the so called "killer highway" because of its being the widest road in the Philippines. It is easy to notice you're approaching Commonwealth Avenue because there's a flyover above it. Traffic in this intersection is moderate to heavy. Go cross Commonwealth Avenue. Now, after crossing Commonwealth Avenue, Tandang Sora Avenue bends to the left as it merges a little bit with Commonwealth Avenue and then separate again in a diagonal way. Just follow the road direction. Traffic here is sometimes heavy because of public jeepneys that stand right at the corner, but after that it's gonna be smooth sailing. Tandang Sora Avenue becomes Katipunan Avenue in area where you will conspicuously see Manila Water Head Office signage that stands in the center island of now widened road. This area is popularly known as MWSS and you get to see another sign of Maynilad. Now, stay to the middle and watch for road signs above and take the lane below Eastwood City sign. You get to pass through Katipunan Aurora Boulevard Flyover, Libis Boni Serrano Katipunan Tunnel and Boni Serrano Libis Flyover, and then Eastwood City skyline becomes very visible from the distance. Drive past Eastwood City all the way to Fort Bonifacio Global City Taguig. Follow direction given in Route #6, starting there in part where you will be crossing Pasig River.
Route #2
From Alabang, Muntinlupa, Festival Mall, Filinvest City, Metropolis Starmall, provinces of Batangas, Laguna, Quezon and other areas nearby.
Take the skyway and drive all the way past Bicutan exit. Next to Bicutan Exit is NAIA-3 Exit. From the distance while traversing skyway, after Bicutan Exit, you will see another flyover crossing above the skyway. It's the NAIA-3 Exit running from your lane. Change lane to the right and take the lane going to NAIA-3 Exit. Stay to the middle and drive on the smooth winding descent of the skyway. The road will turn right and as soon as it turn right, road name changed to Andrews Avenue. Turn right onto Resort Drive, the main road of Newport City from Andrews Avenue.
Route #3
From Robinson's Place Manila in Ermita, Hyatt Hotel, Eurotel, Mabini Street and M.H. Del Pilar Street Ermita and places nearby.
From Robinson's Place Manila, take Adriatico Street and cross Pedro Gil Street. From Hyatt, take Pedro Gil, turn right onto Adriatico. From M.H. Del Pilar, left on Pedro Gil and right onto Adriatico.

Drive on General Malvar all the way and cross Taft, the main road where LRT-1 track passes through. After crossing Taft Avenue, you will cross Leon Guinto Street, then Felipe Agoncillo Street. Next to Agoncillo is San Marcelino Street. Turn right onto San Marcelino. San Marcelino is one way so stay to the middle and cross Nakpil and Remedios streets. After crossing Remedios Street change lane to the left and turn left on Quirino Avenue. From Quirino Avenue, turn right onto President Osmena Highway and drive all the way to Makati. You will cross San Andres Street, P. Ocampo Street and then Zobel Roxas Street. Next to Zobel Roxas is Gil Puyat Flyover. Pass through Gil Puyat Flyover. Upon descent of the flyover, change lane to the rightmost if you're taking the Skyway.
Option 1. After your descent of Gil Puyat Flyover, carefully change lane to the rightmost of Osmena Highway to pass through the ramp of the Skyway which is a little bit closer to Gil Puyat Flyover. Take the Skyway all the way past Magallanes Interchange after which, you must change lane to the right and watch for "NAIA-3 Exit". Take "NAIA-3" exit and drive on the smooth descent of the skyway ramp. The road will turn right and as soon as it turn right, road name changed to Andrews Avenue. Turn right onto Resort Drive, the main road of Newport City from Andrews Avenue.
Option 2. Drive past Skyway Entry Ramp and pass through Magallanes Interchange. Approximately 2 kilometers past Magallanes Interchange, and before the Skyway Crossover Interchange (shown in picture here), turn right onto the service road going to Sales Road, the main road that runs through beneath Skyway NAIA-3 Exit ramp. Drive into Sales Road past "The Air Force Course" gate. Once you get to Sales Road, drive further underneath Skyway ramp until the road turn right and road name changes to Andrews Avenue.
