not far in the same neighborhood, is the luxurious village mall, displaying only the best of the best of brazilian and international brands. also targeting the sophisticated consumer, is the são conrado fashion mall - home to upscale stores each packed tight with exclusive designer brands. cosmetic, sporting, and electronic shops supply the well-heeled visitors and cariocas with all they need for a fun afternoon. 

the space is open and airy, which does a lot to soften the chaos during particularly crowded days, and the ambience  is much more relaxed in comparison to other shopping complexes.
