A former viaduct transformed into a "Shopping Mile" with restaurants, fashion, furniture and outdoor sports shops. There is also a big market located in the great hall, where fresh produce and delicatessen are sold. This is a lively spot especially in the afternoon and nights, but you can also have breakfast here.
