Financial City Business District
Compared with the Chunxi Road business district, the Financial City business district started late, but the business district has great potential, and many people say "Standing on Chunxi Road, you can see Chengdu's yesterday; Standing in the financial city, what you see is the future of Chengdu", the core position can be seen.
With the Financial City project as the core, the financial city business district radiates the surrounding area, starting from Fucheng Avenue in the north, Jinyue West Road of the municipal government in the south, Jiannan Avenue National Defense Park in the west, and Taiyue Bay on Kehua South Road in the east. As the financial center of Chengdu, it not only gathers a large number of office buildings of financial securities and Internet companies, but also covers the most expensive luxury residential and hotel groups in Chengdu. Most of the shopping malls in the area are used as supporting commercial buildings to meet the needs of business people, providing mid-to-high-end shopping, dining, leisure and entertainment venues.
The business district roads extend in all directions, the shopping malls are built along Tianfu Avenue, the subway and buses are widely distributed, and the distance from the main shopping malls is not too far, and the transportation is convenient.

Jiufang Shopping Center
Chengdu Jiufang opened in 2012 and is the first generation of commercial projects of AVIC Real Estate. At the beginning of the mall's operation, it was positioned as a white-collar shopping mall, focusing on clothing and catering, which was no different from ordinary shopping malls. In 2016, Jiufang ushered in a major reform, cutting 20% of the retail sales of the shopping mall and handing over more than 10,000 square meters of area to Winshare BOOKS, which perfectly realized the stride from the shopping center to the Yiwen Center.
Winshare BOOKS is a new sub-brand bookstore of Xinhua Winshare, and the Jiufang store is also the first store in China. The bookstore is divided into a reading space, a cultural curation space, a cultural and creative product space, a Kindle offline experience store and a lecture area, all of which are created by the famous designer Li Weimin, and the Eslite Bookstore in Taiwan is one of his works. However, Jiufang's literary and artistic temperament not only benefits from Winshare BOOKS, but also Kids Winshare, Chinese Crafts, Mingyue Village, Josh's Books, Xinxin Stationery, Western Zen Art, Jiufang Impression Life Creator Market, Nietzsche's Hot Pot Restaurant, Socrates' Teahouse and other stores also contribute to it.
The mall has a strong bookish atmosphere, sparse space utilization, and a comfortable and leisurely feeling as a whole, which is very suitable for hanging out and relaxing after work or on weekends.
New Century Global Center

Paradise Island Ocean Park occupies a prime location in the heart of the world, with 400 meters of coastline and 5,000 square meters of man-made beach costly, and the daily visitors to the mall also bring a lot of footfall. There are a large number of well-known brands in the business district, ranging from affordable fast fashion casual clothing to exquisite and luxurious foreign luxury brands, which can meet the needs of all kinds of consumption levels.
Lotte Department Store Global Store is Rakuten's first flagship store in China, and all stores occupy 5 floors and are located in the main area, and the supremacy is unassailable. The shopping mall is also rich in food and beverages, such as Baguo cloth clothes, Ding Pang Tuwan Xiang, Shangjing exquisite cuisine, tram raw pan-fried, Chaoshan beef hot pot, Jincuihe Hong Kong-style tea restaurant, Myeongdong Food Street and other regional delicacies can be tasted here.
The Global Center is paved with warm-toned striped marble, with door frames, escalators and beams in gold and bronze, and an expansive vertical atrium that illuminates the entire hall with golden light. The shopping mall guidance system is not clear enough, and there are many forks in the road in some areas, so it is easy to take the wrong road, so it is best to consult the staff.
