Finding a place to park in Makati City near popular areas like Ayala Triangle Gardens or Poblacion can be a real struggle, especially on weekdays. While residents and office workers may be familiar with the ins and outs of Makati’s streets, those who don’t frequently visit the area might be dissuaded from driving there because of the parking situation.
One reason you might want to visit is to access Ayala Triangle Gardens, an urban park in the heart of Makati’s central business district. This spot is ideal for walking, jogging, and enjoying nature, particularly during car-free Sundays, fun runs and community events. The rare green oasis surrounded by skyscrapers also hosts some of the city’s top dining spots, including Helm, the country’s only two-star Michelin restaurant.
While using public transport to get here is more economical, that’s not always an option for those traveling with seniors, kids, and pets from different points of the metro.
Here’s a guide detailing where to park in and near Ayala Triangle Gardens, as suggested by Make it Makati’s page, along with updated rates and operational hours as of January 2026. Be aware of possible road closures for car-free Sundays (around 5am to 10am) and organized events by checking the latest traffic advisories.
We’ve also included a quick commuting guide to encourage those who can to take public transport. We recommend taking the MRT-3 to Ayala Station or using routes that pass One Ayala—including the EDSA Bus Carousel or P2P buses—and walking the rest of the way.
