Shopping for those with deep pockets: this flashy mall with its cathedral-high ceilings and sculptural roof is all about international couture brands (think Prada and Dior). With a swag of dining and drinking options, it's also a nightlife hub. Many of the restaurant-bars here are positioned on the waterfront promenade side, so good outdoor socialising opportunities (in cooler months) abound.
The mall connects with the Rosewood hotel on its south side and the Four Seasons to the north.
