The Ayala Triangle Gardens is a 2-hectare (4.9-acre) landscaped urban park in Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines. It is a triangular public garden and courtyard in the center of the Makati Central Business District. It was named after its owner and developer Ayala Land, and opened to the public in November 19, 2009. Inspired by Hyde Park in London, the park, which is dotted with palms, acacia trees, and tropical foliage, is considered to be one of the largest "green" areas in Makati. The Triangle has become a focal point for social events in the business district, and is popular at Christmas for its extravagant light-and-sound display. It is also home to the Tower One and Exchange Plaza and the Makati Stock Exchange Building, as well as Helm, the Philippines' first and only two-Michelin-starred restaurant, and the old Nielson Tower, which houses a fine dining restaurant called Blackbird.
