Today the 17th of October 2015 together with my daughter and daughter in-law, we went to Divisoria to look and buy some important items which were quite expensive and difficult to find in our place.

Also posted below were the maps  of how to get to Divisoria's Tutuban Mall parking area if bringing your own vehichle.  The route is via Tayuman street and Dagupan street since Recto Avenue is too much crowded with passenger Jeepneys and other vehicles.
