What to know

• If you’re taking the South Island MTR line, get off at South Horizons, take exit C and walk about 15 minutes. Or alternatively, you can hop on the 671 or 95 bus.
• If you follow our lift tip, start at the 28th floor (to start with furniture) or the 27th (if you want to start with fashion). There is no floor 13, 14, 23, and 24, and the third floor is parking.
• With over 100 stores, feel free to pop into ones we haven’t suggested in this guide!
