I remember stepping into this sleek, modern masterpiece, designed by Arquitectonica and EDGE Interior Designers, which opened its doors on May 17, 2013, as the 47th SM Supermall and the 13th in Metro Manila. The name “Aura,” derived from the chemical symbols for gold (Au) and radium (Ra), totally fits its radiant, elegant atmosphere. As one of Manila tourist attractions, tourist in Philippines will love this. As I wandered through the mall’s 63,000-square-meter space at 26th Street corner McKinley Parkway, I was struck by the mix of high-end brands like Stuart Weitzman and Calvin Klein alongside local favorites like Kultura Filipino, all housed under a roof that’s earned a LEED Gold certification for its eco-friendly design—pretty impressive for the Philippines’ first mall to snag that honor! The newly revamped Director’s Club Cinemas, which reopened in December 2023 with plush Ferco Verona recliner seats and Dolby Atmos sound, had me tempted to catch a movie, especially after hearing about the third cinema added in 2024. I also couldn’t miss the Skypark, a multi-level green rooftop that’s like a mini-oasis with sculptures, botanical gardens, and al fresco dining spots where I imagined sipping a coffee while gazing at the BGC skyline. Fun fact: the Skypark hosts yoga sessions and mini-concerts, making it a lively spot for both relaxation and events. I strolled past the 250-seat Chapel of San Pedro Calungsod, a serene nook for reflection, and learned it’s one of the few malls with a dedicated chapel. The SMX Convention Center on the third and fourth floors, spanning 6,148 square meters, caught my eye with its capacity for 2,480 guests—perfect for big events. Trivia time: the mall’s grand opening was star-studded, with Sarah Jessica Parker cutting the ribbon for The SM Store, and it’s still a hot topic on social media for its upscale vibe. Recent posts on X mentioned the Timezone arcade’s VR Dark Mars game, a thrilling four-seater adventure added in 2024, which I’m dying to try next time. While Tripadvisor reviews rave about the clean, safe vibe and diverse dining at places like Ramen Nagi and The Food Hall, some folks grumbled about a ₱50 IMAX takeout fee and parking woes during heavy rains, like when the lowest level flooded in 2013. Open daily from 10 AM to 10 PM, SM Aura Premier feels like a luxurious escape, though I wish there were more proudly Filipino products, as one reviewer noted. #smaura #smaurapremier #lakwatsawalktourph TIMESTAMP: 00:00:00 SM Aura Premier 00:02:50 SM Aura Premier Upper Ground 00:07:16 SM Aura Premier SM Store 00:08:04 SM Aura Premier Lower Ground 00:10:55 SM Aura Premier Level 2 00:13:38 SM Aura Premier Level 3 00:13:50 SM Aura Premier SMX Convention Center 00:19:02 SM Aura Premier Level 4 00:19:53 SM Aura Premier Cinema 00:21:48 SM Aura Premier Food On Four 00:29:56 SM Aura Premier Level 5 00:30:23 SM Aura Premier Dine at the Fifth 00:30:46 SM Aura Premier Sky Park 00:37:52 SM Aura Premier Paw Park 00:43:09 SM Aura Premier Tower 00:48:11 SM Aura Premier Samsung Hall 00:51:58 SM Aura Premier Chapel of San Pedro Calungsod If you enjoy my videos and want to see more manila philippines walking tour 4k, see the best places to visit in manila and other philippines beautiful places, please ★SUBSCRIBE★ Maraming Salamat, po 🙇🏻‍♂️🙏 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ★★ METRO MANILA WALKING TOURS PLAYLIST★★    • METRO MANILA by Lakwatsa Walk Tour PH   ★★ CEBU WALKING TOURS PLAYLIST★★    • CEBU by Lakwatsa Walk Tour Ph   --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music track: Funky by Waesto Source: https://freetouse.com/music Free To Use Music for Video
