The First Living Flag on Ayala Triangle

It was only recently that I found out that the area near Makati Stock Exchange is now a beautifully designed public park called the Ayala Triangle. Yesterday, I witness the unveiling of the first living Philippine flag. It was called living flag because the garden flowers were patterned by colors of our flag. Ayala Land was responsible for this just before we celebrate 12th of June. 

Present during the event was the newly elected Makati Congresswoman Monique Lagdameo. Though it is a Makati project, we Filipinos can also share the national pride for this and appreciate the creative display of nationalism. In the area surrounding the living flag are the information involving our Philippine flag. 

Also unveiled that day was the original art posted along Sedena pedestrian underpass themed "Everyday Filipino Heroes".
