Other entertainment options here include an indoor amusement park complete with roller coaster, video game arcades, simulator rides, a community theatre and arts centre, and a 14-screen cinema. A plethora of shops includes designer boutiques and international chains, plus major department stores such as Debenham's and Harvey Nichols. Even the parking lot is impressive: 6000 spots are arranged in color-coded aisles that are electronically barricaded when full, so parking your car (and finding it later) is a whole lot easier than you might expect. |
