What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Dangwa Flower Market is celebrated for its incredible variety of fresh, affordable flowers, making it a go-to destination for any occasion. Visitors praise the ability to haggle and find unique blooms, though traffic and lack of public restrooms are noted drawbacks. Despite minor inconveniences, it's considered the best place for flower shopping in Manila.
"The pandemic affected the amount and quality of flowers being sold in this market. Dangwa is known for its flowers, locally grown and imported. The prices differ from one stall to another. There seems to be a lack of price monitoring. Dried flowers are mostly imported from China which I do not buy at all because I prefer locally manufactured dried leaves, weeds and flowers of the Philippine variety. Floral arrangements, usually crafted by men, are highly recommended."

"A market with a variety of local and imported flowers, for all occassions. There are many shops to find the flowers which you can buy as ready bouquets, bundles, and also to be arranged according to your taste. Flower arrangers are mostly men, surprisingly.
The less expensive shops are farther away from the Bus Station. It is advised that you roam around and canvass first and discover the different varieties of flowers before you make any purchase, for quality and price evaluation."

"No other place in Manila where you can find a good quality flowers on a most reasonable price ever.
Strolling this place in the wee hours of moning to find a wearth/garland to adorn my brother's coffin on his wake. Indeed the best in town where to find the best flowers that anyone could choose from. From gifts, weddings, baptismal and funeral. You could find it all here.
Likes: they have all the varieties of flowers one could ever imagine, prices were reasonable- way-way too cheaper from a flower shop inside the mall. What I really like the most? You could haggle the prices.
Dislikes: Traffic, garbage, Not public CR in the area, No parking space
Over all rating this is the best place for flower shopping."
