VivoCity exterior

More than just Singapore's largest shopping mall, VivoCity offers that rare commodity: open space. There's an outdoor kids' playground on level two and a rooftop 'skypark' where little ones can splash about in free-to-use paddling pools. The retail mix is predominantly midrange, and there's a large Golden Village cineplex.
