The Media Hub Stop

GMA-Kamuning station gets its prefix name from the GMA Network Center compound, which sits directly adjacent to the southbound exit. You can actually see the television studios from the station platform. Honestly, it's one of the busiest middle stations on the MRT-3 line, serving as the default transfer point for thousands of commuters heading to government offices along East Avenue and the restaurant strips in the Scout Area.

The station layout is elevated, featuring two side platforms and a central concourse above the EDSA highway. It is a standard concrete structure, and like most MRT-3 stops, it can get incredibly hot and crowded during the weekday rush hours (7 AM - 9 AM and 5 PM - 8 PM). Just a heads up: keep your bags in front of you and be mindful of your pockets, especially around the stairs and ticket barriers.

Commuter Tips & Transfers

If you are heading to **Tomas Morato**, exit on the northbound side (GMA Network side). From the bottom of the stairs, you can either take a 10-minute walk down Timog Avenue or grab a tricycle from the terminal near the corner. Tricycles are sharing-based or private, costing around ₱30 to ₱50 depending on how far you're going.

If you are heading to the **East Avenue** government offices (like LTO, SSS, or East Avenue Medical Center), use the southbound exit. There is a jeepney terminal just a short walk down Kamuning Road that will take you straight to East Avenue. Keep small change handy because the jeepney drivers hate changing large bills during peak hours.
