The commercial complex will feature around 270 shop counters. The curated lineup covers international fashion labels, popular Japanese culinary concepts, local Taiwanese dining outlets, and diverse lifestyle entertainment facilities. Building on the established models in Taichung and Nankang, the venue is tailored specifically to local lifestyle needs while catering to international travellers seeking a comprehensive shopping and dining hub.
