A celebration of creative human landscapes

MANILA, Philippines - While many residential communities feature rolling terrain, lush gardens, and open, green spaces, Ayala Westgrove Heights offers more than just beautiful landscapes such as these. This 400-hectare orchard community (the largest in its category) also offers thriving, creative human landscapes, comprised of Ayala Westgrove Heights’ imaginative and talented residents who are as colorful, as vibrant and as rich as the development’s panoramas and settings.

This Southern community, allowed guests to experience a night of good food, beautiful music, interesting stories, and exquisite art. Held recently, the Ayala Westgrove Heights’ Night Festival saw the community’s affable, and artistic residents welcoming guests to a unique celebration, which highlighted the relaxing environment of the community as much as it stressed the closeness, passion, and vibrancy of the families who have made Ayala Westgrove Heights their home.

Set at the highest peak of the development, the Night Festival allowed guests to savor views from the city below as well as the delicious food prepared by Ayala Westgrove Heights’ resident chefs and foodies.

Ayala Westgrove Heights’ photography enthusiasts, including artist Wawi Navarroza, offered tips and advice on landscape and outdoor photography, and allowed guests to try their own skills behind the camera. The exquisite architecture of the Church of St. Benedict, the Mediterranean-styled clubhouses (there are a total of six in Ayala Westgrove Heights), and the 28-hectare Orchard Park, with its colorful flowers and fruit trees provided great subjects for photography.

Ayala Land Premiere’s Jose Juan Jugo talks about how Ayala Westgrove Heights’ existing and thriving community adds vibrant landscape and defines the development’s distinctive neighborhood and lifestyle.

Navarroza explained as part of the advice she dispensed during the mini photography seminar during the Night Festival: “Always look for a focal point for your photo and don’t forget to be aware of your surroundings and appreciate what’s around you. Try to learn more about your camera since it can really record your experiences especially if you’re a resident of Ayala Westgrove Heights, where you have amazing things around you like the sky, the hills, and the city.”

Photography, music, and cooking aren’t the only passions of the Ayala Westgrove Heights residents, though. The many different activities and organizations held and formed by residents continue to nurture each family’s creativity and talents. Painting and gardening workshops, outreach programs, tennis, soccer and play groups for kids allow residents to interact with each other and help strengthen old friendships and build new ones as well.

“It is important that residents of a community gather for community-organized activities that appeal to different people. Shared activities let residents of a community discover their common interests,” shared Raffy Nieto, an Ayala Westgrove resident for eight years. 

The residents help define Ayala Westgrove Heights’ vibrant and rich landscapes and gives character, strength and charm to the development’s distinctive neighborhood and lifestyle.
