Tokyo's New Landmark: Azabudai Hills!

Opening in 2024, Azabudai Hills is set to redefine the traditional shopping mall experience! The architecture follows the natural contours of the mountain, creating layered spaces interspersed with greenery. Walking up the stairs feels like strolling through a forest trail 🌿. Although not all luxury stores have opened yet, the underground art museum alone is worth a visit—its current exhibition features a massive light installation, and the curled-up sculpture in the first photo perfectly symbolizes the human spirit, evoking a sense of connection as it depicts the act of retreating into a corner to daydream. The outdoor spaces are the biggest surprise: the terrace is filled with native Japanese plants, offering breathtaking views of the Roppongi skyline at sunset. The mall's interior design is rich in detail, with walls featuring traditional washi paper textures paired with metallic accents—even the escalators look like works of art! The underground food hall boasts numerous gourmet shops, where you can pick up premium cheeses and hams to enjoy a picnic on the outdoor seating. On weekends, there's even a handmade craft market! Currently, the mall isn't too crowded, making it a delight to explore. Don't forget to visit the Sky Garden on the 4th floor for a photo op. After touring the mall, you can also drop by the nearby teamLab exhibition for a day filled with artistic inspiration. Come experience this "breathing" commercial complex before it becomes the next big thing!
