The next place Nanjingers will tell you to check out is the fashionable Aqua City Mall. Aqua City is much tamer than Xinjiekou and caters to a more international crowd. With stores like H&M, Zara, French Connection, Uniqlo, Mango and even a Steve Madden (just to name a few), those looking for familiar Western names and styles will undoubtedly find it at Aqua City. Located just across the street from Fuzi Miao (also known as Confucius Temple), it is easy to find and all the taxi drivers know it. As you take a stroll around the mall, the sound of rushing water is calming (hence the name Aqua City), and overall, the place has a very pleasant feel. Along with great stores, there’s cafes, restaurants, a high-end grocery store, an arcade and even a movie theatre, so there’s something to please everyone. Definitely worth checking out is the beer garden on the roof of the mall. Having a beer watching the sun set on the city is a perfect way to end a day of leisurely shopping, coffee drinking and movie watching.
