"It has great outlet shops both for adults and kids. For kids it has - T.Hilfiger, Gocco, Musgo, Imaginarium, Petit Bateau and many more. Also very nice stuff for baking with kids (scone or cookie cutters) in Le Crueset and Bodum. I really like the layout which is outdoor as opposed to a closed in shopping centre. It has a playpark for kids and lots of restrooms and changing areas for babies" (EO)Recommended by Elizabeth
