The Nanjing East Outlets, situated in the vicinity of the Nanjing Lukou International Airport, offer a luxury retail shopping experience to travelers from all over the world. The multi-level outlets feature an open-air gallery filled with a wide variety of activities dispersed throughout the outlet center, providing a lush outdoor shopping experience. Several separate yet cohesive architectural languages are used indifferent areas of the complex providing visual wayfinding queues. Overhead roof structures provide respite from the sun while creating additional visual interest. Overlooks on the second level allow for additional daylight below while accentuating resting areas and fountains of the first floor, creating a physical and visual connection between the levels. Terraces and bridges within the complex provide additional scenic views and areas of rest. Two mirror-image residential towers, linked by a striking tension bridge, overlook the Outlets; acting as an anchor and visual beacon, drawing in patrons from around the world.
