A small to medium sized mall with lots of cute shops. My favourites were Zara Home, and some perfume stores, like Granado. L'occitane Bresil is also worth a visit because all their products come in a variety of fruity flavours not available in Australia.
For food, I liked health food store upstairs ( L3), On L2 is the biggest food court area. there is a shop serving buffet sushi and buffet churrasco. There is also a hot dog stall and an ice cream stall. Then there's that place that serves more traditional rice, beans, chicken.
There's also another ice cream and coffee place on the ground floor ( Bacio) that's super cute.

Offcourse there are always a lot of taxis. And also is possible take another bus there or uber.
I went on a lot of shoppings here but I think this is the best one. Most diffirent kind of stores and foods for...
Read moreThis place is defying the laws of time and space: several times a day, the stores and stairways shuffle around. A store you just visited a few minutes ago suddenly is not there anymore if you want to go there again.
Or at least, I cannot find it again. Ever. I have spent hours here, just to looking for a particular store, the stairs, lower / higher floors, my car.
This is probably the most confusing maze of a mall in the world. Go here at your own risk and with a lot of time. Fortunately, even the food courts and restaurants shuffle around, so you always stumble across something to eat if you need to spend a few days in here, because you can’t...
