Tips going to tutuban mall

[dinocol]

ei! help naman.. how do i get to tutuban mall parking if im comming from abad santos? any tips / traps to watch out for? traffic b dun tuwing lunch time? thanks...

[OTEP]

Just drive along Abad Santos heading towards Recto (which is the direction heading away from Rizal Avenue).

When you reach CM Recto stoplight turn right.

When you reach the 2nd corner to your right turn right, you are now in Tutuban. You will know that it is the correct entrance because there are guards inspecting all incoming vehicles.

Just drive straight in. Parking will be to your right.

To get back to Abad Santos, just drive along the same road you entered (it's one way, you'll never go wrong).

When you get to the end of the road, turn right, diretso Abad Santos na iyon. You can turn left and head back to Manila/Caloocan/Rizal Avenue.

bossing Otep,

paano naman po kung sa 168 Mall? nagyaya na si gf bago daw mag-december para iwas sa december-crowd.

safe ba magdala/magpark ng kotse dun?

[OTEP]

Kapag 168 mall, I just park at Tutuban tower parking (yung multilevel, flat rate Php50.00). Kapag sa open parking ka ng Tutuban nag-park, flat rate Php60.00.

Then I walk the same road I drove into going to the tutuban parking. Pagdating ko ng CM Recto (labas na ng Tutuban), I turn right then walk a lil more.

When I see the first street corner on my left, tumatawid na ko. Kalye na ng 168 yun. Sandali na lang nasa entrance ka na (Pasilyo 1-O). hehehe.

Hindi 90 degree yung kanto. Mga 45 degrees lang. May pulis naman parati dun. Itanong mo lang kung saan ang Soler St.

don't bring any cellphones of sort, or anything that look like one..hehhehee mahirap talaga mag park lalo na ngayon malapit na xmas, go there early, kiper kung sa 168 ka lang , I suggest punta ka sa ongpin or magpark ka around binondo churcdh then mag sidecar na lang kayo or lakarin niyo na lang...

[OTEP]

Iwas na lang sa sidecar. Minsan harang ang singil eh ang lapit lang ng 168 mula church or Tutuban.

Bring your own large supot or bag din pala para may mapaglagyan ng pinamili.

babala: kung magpapark sa open area parking ng Tutuban mall (yung naka sandwich between Dagupan st. and Antonio Rivera)...piliin nyo yung slot na malapit sa guard. baka mapagtripan auto nyo.

[OTEP]

Mas ok sa Tower Parking. Mas mura pa. Bakit kaya mas mahal sa open parking?

Kapag maaga ako, sa tabi ng bridgeway ko pinapark para katabi ng guard.

[squatt3r]

for some strange reason, hindi ako comfortable magpark sa tower parking. andilim tapos parang walang guards. kung meron man andun sila sa gilid lang.

[OTEP]

Ako naman hindi kumportable sa open parking. hehehe. Para kasing kung sino sino ang pumapasok ng open parking. Pati yung hindi naman nakapark dun pumapasok ginagawang luneta yung open parking. Ok naman sa Tower, it's not that dark (mas maliwanag lang talaga sa labas) and may roving guard naman per floor. Bukod dun sa permanently stationed guard sa bridgeways.

Just want to add something...

It's actually the third corner( along recto avenue), first is Narra st, second is Antonio Rivera, where in you will see almost all MCU-divisoria and Blumentritt jeepneys are turning right creating a monstrous jam all the time there, just pass thru it then you will see the entrance of tutuban mall, beside is the Bonifacio monument.... just go stright after the guards, then on first corner you will see BPI bank( that's the parking tower already above it), turn right then you will see the parking entrance where you get your parking tickets... HTH..

WBR,

WBR,

you can actually avoid this entrance if you enter via Mayhaligue. coming from Monumento (on J. Abad Santos), this is the first street right after Bambang. Turn right on this street and you'll eventually end up at the entrance of the open area parking.

I would definitely suggest this route. Because the first time i went there thru C.M. Recto, I missed the Tutuban entrance ( beside the Bonifacio monument ), and binaybay ko yung Recto towards Del Pan. The road was almost blocked by the tables of street vendors and pedestrians. at wala ng U-Turn slot. Ang tagal ko ding ginapang yon plus katakot takot na excuse me and makikiraan po. It was a nightmare.

I would definitely suggest this route if you are coming from bambang/abad santos streets. Also, this same route or dagupan st. should be your exit point.

Ok din ito. Buti may nagpaliwanag na ng daan. Hirap kasi ako ipaliwanag. Kapag ako nag-explain niyan baka lalo pang mawala yung nagtatanong. hehehe.

Adviseable ito kung tinanghali ka ng dating. Kung mga 8-9am ka naman dumadating sa Tutuban, wala pang traffic sa harap.

[KCboy]

mag 168 nalang kayo. linalangaw na tutuban dahil sa 168, masmadami daw mura.

[squatt3r]

plan namin ng wife ko magpunta ng 168 this sunday. agahan namin para wala pang tao. dating gawi....magpapark ako sa Pearl Hotel/Tower (limot ko na) sa UN ave then sakay jeep papunta Sta. Cruz. tapos jeep ulet divisoria.

[OTEP]

kc,
Sa 168 nga ako nagpupunta. Nakikipark lang ako sa Tutuban. hehehe. Minsan sa Divisoria Mall.

Salamat po sa lahat ng mga nag-reply.. Kahit hindi ko naman masyado naintindihan explaination nyo..hehe Hindi pa kasi ako nakapunta dun kahit minsan sa Tutuban area. Check ko na lang map ko bago pumunta. Masmaganda kung maaga kami nandun na noh? Sana mag-enjoy ako sa pagshopping! Merry Christmas na!

Thanks!

guys.. pakitingin kung tama ung map ko.




Coming from J. Abad Santos, turn right ako sa C.M. Recto. Then diretso upto the third block? Papasok ako sa may "01" ("02" is the 4th block..) then look for the Tower Parking at dun ako magpapark?

After magpark walk palabas papunta dun sa may "03" (eto na ung 45degrees) nandun na ung 168 Mall? Tama ba ko? Punta kami bukas.. Takot ako sa traffic. Okay na ba kung nandun kami around 7am?

Sa N.Domingo, San Juan pala kami manggagaling. Okay ba daan na Aurora Sta.Mesa - Malacanang - San Beda - Recto?

Thanks!
