Alta Citta turns 5

One of the most recognizable landmarks in the heart of Tagbilaran City, Alta Citta celebrates five years of being the favorite shopping and dining hub in the downtown area.

Store manager Alexis Roque said Alta Citta marked its 5th Anniversary last July 6, with relatively less fanfare. But they conducted a computer game promo, dubbed as “Scan & Win”, for their valued customers to enjoy winning instant prizes while shopping and dining.

The anniversary day was also highlighted by a free clinic inside the store, where patients availed themselves of free medical consultation and check up; and a feeding program for the Badjaos who enjoyed free meals. A Lip Synch duet was held in the afternoon; while a kiddie singing star search was also conducted a day before.

Within the span of five years, Mr. Roque is proud of Alta Citta to have major tenants like Jollibee, Chowking, Sunburst, ibex, BPI, Miniso, David Salon, Hukad, Dimsum Break, Executive Optical, including The Prawn Farm, etc.

Alta Citta also has a Supermarket at the lower ground level which is open until 10 pm, including its MedPlus pharmacy. Other tenants open late at 10 am until 8 pm.

The young and charming, dynamic store manager expresses his heartfelt gratitude to all the valued customers for their continued patronage of Alta Citta through the years.

A stunning architectural masterpiece, the 4-level Alta Citta spreads across 17,213 square meters occupying almost the entire block previously occupied by HNU (formerly DWC-T). With its exterior walls replete with striking linear designs, the mall has the semblance of the old HNU building purposely done just to preserve its sentimental and historical values.

The basement of the store serves as the carpark which can accommodate 65 cars and 150 motorcycles at any given time. An outside parking area around the mall can also hold 65 cars.

The meaning of Alta Citta is derived from the Spanish word “alta” meaning “high”, and Italian word “citta” which is “city”.
