The City of Dreams Manila at Aseana Avenue and Roxas Boulevard in Parañaque is a 6.2-hectare luxury integrated resort and casino complex. It was not my first time to visit the entertainment complex at Parañaque City but it has always impressed my every time. The clean and sleek design is always aesthetically pleasing.

Events & Happenings

Blogapalooza at The City Of Dreams Manila

On this visit, I was able to check out more of The City of Dreams Manila when I attended the Blogapalooza event held at one of its ballroom halls. The ballroom halls can be used for formal to business events or gatherings. The halls are large, well-ventilated, accessible and clean comfort rooms, high ceilings, and ideal for any occasions.

We had enough time to go around and to explore what The City Of Dreams Manila has to offer for both local and foreigner guests. It is definitely a great place for family to stay and do family staycation at. There’s everything for everyone and you do not need to go out of the entertainment complex to be entertained. You might need budget for it though, the accommodation, boutique shops, and entertainment centers are high-end and products and services can come at a price. My City of Dreams Manila experience was an eye-opener for me – that it does cater to everyone be it young or old and it does live up to its name.
