A beautiful place to stroll! The breathtaking architecture captivates anyone who visits. Inside, there are several cafes and shopping options. Just be aware that many stores cater to high-end tastes, so if you're on a budget, be prepared to admire from afar. Don't miss the small rooftop— I forgot to take pictures, but the view is lovely!

I didn't find it particularly special, and it was quite crowded even during the pandemic. Still, the architecture is nice.
