When Filipinos travel, we bring home two things: memories and pasalubong—lots of it! We can't help it, it's just part of our DNA. And while itineraries are made based on the sights to see, there's no denying that there will always be at least a day allotted for shopping. According to recent research made from the folks over at Expedia UK, they came up with a definitive list of the best cities in the world for shopping. Factoring in three components, namely: number of visitors, value for money, and city friendliness, the group came up with a list of 25 cities that would give every fashion girl that overall shopping experience.
Of course, the fashion capitals of the world were expectedly on the list, but we're glad to tell you that three of them are actually only a few hours away from Manila! Scroll down to see the top 10.
