Here are mall schedules for Undas 2023
UNDAS 2023 MALL SCHEDULES – Malls in urban areas nationwide are modifying their business hours in observance of the All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day holidays.
“Undas” is a significant and traditional occasion observed in the Philippines that commemorates All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day. It typically falls on November 1st and 2nd, respectively. The term “Undas” itself is derived from the Spanish word “honras,” which means honors or homage.
During Undas, families and friends gather to pay respects to their deceased loved ones. Many visit cemeteries to clean and decorate the graves of their relatives, offering prayers, candles, flowers, and sometimes even food.
It’s a time for both remembrance and reverence for those who have passed away, honoring their memory and offering prayers for their souls. It’s deeply ingrained in Philippine culture and is a time of solemn reflection and connection with family members who have passed on.
In line with the festivities, shopping centers in urban areas nationwide are modifying their business hours in observance of the All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day holiday.
