Plaza Marcela

Overview

Plaza Marcela is a shopping mall at the corner of Pamaong and Belderol Streets, Cogon district, Tagbilaran City, listed in the provincial tourist-attraction inventory under Shopping / Malls and Department Stores. It opened in 1997 and held the position of the city’s leading mall until Island City Mall opened and drew the crowds away — it remains an active retail anchor in the Cogon commercial node all the same.

Tenants include the boutiques Guess?, Mona Lisa, and Hammerhead Jeans; a department store; Jollibee and Greenwich alongside a food court; the music retailer Odyssey; the magazine shop Filbar; and a gaming center, with covered, security-monitored parking on site.
