  3. Prince's Building

    You may find the layout of Prince's Building disorientating, but it's worth a look for its speciality fashion, toy and kitchenware shops. The selection is rather eclectic - from high-end boutiques such as Chanel and Cartier on the ground floor to booksellers, Mothercare, jewellers, stationers and luggage shops on the levels above. It's an especially good place to bring the kids as almost the entire 3rd floor is given over to children's shops.

  4. Toy Museum

    Top-of-the-line teddy bears, action men, Beanie Babies and Pokemon paraphernalia are crammed into a tight space here. There's a great collection of old GI Joes for dads to amuse themselves with and a toy hospital too.

    A couple of dozen quirky little fashion outlets crowd into this micro mall selling new and vintage gear for guys and gals. It's very urban and aimed largely at a teen and twenty-something clientele.

  7. Wise Kids

    Nothing to plug in, nothing with batteries: Wise Kids concentrates on kids generating energy with what's upstairs.
