I have always been fascinated by the skyline. nicely clustered.
KL is going to get a skyscraper that looks like Rizal Tower.

So, I give Makati a 9/10

wow, its really nice...i didn't expect makatai to look like that at all...9/10

renell · December 21st, 2002, 10:13 AM

luis, one of your pics doesnt work

that makati sunset picture is the best skyline pic ive seen
9.5/10, my favorite skyline.

Rainier Meadows · December 21st, 2002, 10:17 AM

This city earns an 8/10 just for being a hidden gem!

Francis20 · December 21st, 2002, 02:02 PM

Wow, a nice thread!
a lot of modern and nice skyscrapers in that Area.

Damn!! I'm getting slow these days.... I was just about to start this thread!!

Anyways, thanks Luis!

Thanks for the pics

For those who don't know, Makati City is part of the Manila Metro area. It is the financial center of the Philippines.

I love Makati....I rate it 9.5/10, but since I'm hometown bais, i'll rate it 10/10 anyways...

hehehe...

btw, thanks for posting additional pics, queetz. Including my panorama

Here are some more pics:

I've been dyng to have that posted here.
you've done a good job man...

December 26th, 2002, 01:58 PM

DENSE!!!!! it's the only place in metro manila that have skyline?

Francis20 · December 26th, 2002, 02:27 PM

NO Geez, have you heard of ORTIGAS ? It has an equally awesome skyline...tho not as much as Makati in terms of number of skyscrapers.

December 27th, 2002, 08:53 AM

That's right! Makati City isn't the only skyscraper mecca in Metro Manila but it is the biggest one. Plus there is Manila, Muntinlupa, Mandaluyong City and San Juan, although their skylines ain't that big(but they are still tall). I shall start a Rate Our Skylines thread for Ortigas when I get back to Canada in January and get the new pics uploaded in my webspace and will also start a Manila thread afterwards. You guys will love my Ortigas pic taken from One San Miguel Avenue, a 54 storey skyscraper!

renell · December 27th, 2002, 08:55 AM

prolly i can help with the Manila thread. i got some pics.

i need to go back to belgium though

December 28th, 2002, 07:50 AM

thanks for the info...i'll wait for your ortigas thread. it was the first time that i heard about ortigas city, and i look forward for that.
