About Divisoria:
Divisoria, also called “divi” by the locals, is considered as the ultimate bargain shopping center of Manila and the Philippines. People from all over the country visit this place to shop for cheaper goods or to find suppliers for small or medium scale businesses. This place has already been the center of trade since the Spanish colonization. This is where the non-Christian Chinese residents resettled after they have been driven out from Intramuros. This is also the reason why most of the owners of the stores are Chinese and one of the places in Divisoria is called “China Town”. In terms of location, Divisoria is a place that consists of a lot of “barangays” (a subunit of town). Divisoria is comprised of Binondo, San Nicolas, and Tondo. The place is accessible and there are many public transportation routes. You can find a wide variety of merchandise here. Whether it is for business or for shopping purposes, everybody can find something of value. Bargains are what Divisoria is famous for. And what’s better is you can haggle for more discounts. You will be surprised on how low the prices can go and how much savings you can get. Whether it is your first time or your 100th time going to Divisoria, you will find this guide useful in navigating and learning the place.
