For a really, really long time the Post Plaza building was empty, which is a shame because it’s one of the prettiest buildings in the city center. Luckily they've found a way to bring it back to life! It’s not a shopping center like you know it: a very big building filled with a lot of different shops. This is a shopping center in a more modern way.
You enter the building and there are no separate shops: everything is just in one big room. Not just a regular room, but a very pretty room! They left the old paintings on the wall, from the times when the Post Plaza was just, well, a post-office. You can shop here in a really nice and calm atmosphere. If you like shopping, but not the very busy shopping streets: you should definitely take a look in the Post Plaza!
You can shop, but you can also sit back and relax with a nice coffee or lunch in 'le pain quotidien'. Go and explore the Post Plaza, I’m sure you’ll find something you like.
