(1) Bluewater Shopping Park
Known as Europe’s largest indoor shopping centre, located in Kent, Greenhithe near. As the plane was built mountains, the park is like being in a basin, a small city. Shopping park mall consists of three main components, during which the Marks & Spences, House of Fraser and JohnLewis connected. Distribution of more than 330 large and small shops, restaurants and entertainment venues. Those who can see the brand in the high street where you can find almost all. Also include such as Versace, Burberry, CK, the world’s top brands.
Personal view: The main shopping centre to Retail stores with a price and not much different High Street shops, but shops are concentrated, eliminating the usual shopping on foot too much trouble. The downside is that some of the world’s top brands were not set up shop here, many brand style is not complete.
Evaluation: worth a visit
Expected shopping time: 8 hours.
Opening hours:
Monday to Friday 10am – 9pm
Saturday 9am – 8pm
Sunday 11am – 5pm
(2) Bicester outlet village
One of the famous British shopping village, but also boutiques called Village. A must for many tourists shopping places. Many European tourists every year before Christmas to buy something special here. Shopping here is to entertain our customers in China the delegation of fixed items.
Oxfordshire’s Bicester village is located in London and is located between Birmingham and convenient transportation. More than 90 world famous brand outlet stores are in this set. Commodity prices 60% below the market price. Although many are not seasonal products, but the total can really pick the arrival of inexpensive good thing. For example, one pair of Clark’s men’s shoes here sell 25 pounds or so. Here I also spent 30 pounds bought Versace. 3 bought Principles.
The disadvantage is the lack of the world’s top brands, brands are basically good point Jeans series, such as Versace; the best brands are British, such as Aquascutum, Burberry. However, more than 200 pounds of Cerruti 1881 suit or a set of more than 200 of the same Zenga suit in the country is not like that.
Main brands include Aquascutum, Burberry, Cerruti 1881, CK, Dunhill, SalvatoreFerragamo, DKNY, Ermenegildo Zegna, Escada, Holland & Holland, LaPerla, MaxMara, Paul Smith, Polo Ralph Lauren, Tod’s, Tommy Hilfiger, Versace and so on. Including Versace, Burberry, Polo Ralph Lauren store has a certain size.
Personal opinion: The Shopping Village is my favorite shopping places, one can almost always go to Amoy good things. Very suitable for brand-name like me like the poor. Friends should be prepared to return to here around, and sure to pick a good thing to bring home to people.
Evaluation: must go.
Expected shopping time: 6 hours.
Opening hours:
Besides Christmas, open daily 10.00 – 18.00.
(3) Gunwharf Quays Shopping outlet
In the UK southernmost Portsmouth, the train can reach the last stop. Proximity to the sea, the scenery is very beautiful. From shopping in the adjacent sea is also a good bar to enjoy the rest. Gunwharf Quays shoppingcentre more than 65 Designer outlets, 20 restaurants and bars, a 11-screen Warner VillageCinema and a 26 lane bowling hall. The main brands are Adidas, Ben Sherman, Episode, Fred Perry, GAP, Monsoon, Nicole Farhi, Oasis, Speedo, Benetton, Burberry, CK, Clarks, Bally, Ecco, Hush Puppies, Levis, FCUK, Polo Ralph Lauren and so on. Price discounts as low as 70% off.
Personal view: the store and several other similar outlets. But Bally shoe store called one of the highlights here. Bally in the UK because of the major shoppingcentre, outlet, few discount stores, this one can be regarded as the greatest of. I frequented this is a big reason. Bally shoes in general to know to be 150 pounds or more in the Highstreet. Where the average price of 40-70 pounds. Discount on all summer, even 15 pounds a pair. Is simply astronomical, but a low price.
Evaluation: like Bally’s friends must go to see

Monday to Wednesday, 10am – 6pm
Thursday, Friday, 10am – 8pm

(4) McArthur Glen Designer Outlets, York
McArthur Glen is a chain all over Europe Designer outlets, throughout the European continent there are five, seven British Isles, located in Livingston, York, Cheshire Oaks, Swindon, Bridgend, Mansfield and Ashford. I have been in three homes in York I think this is the best. Size is large enough, enough of all brands, reaching as many as 110. The same with several other brands on the basis of more than a Dunhill, Hugo Boss and Armani, which in several other outlets are also rare. A day visit here that is not a problem. Price lower than the market price of about 50% discount twice a year there will be more on offer. I once bought a Dunhill menswear trousers here for only 30 pounds, the Dunhill store in Beijing, the minimum should be 3500. Armani’s store also has a large scale, though still can not afford, but look very enjoy to the full the.
Personal opinion: Because the road a little far from Coventry in the past, so to now only been to one, but still left a good impression.
Evaluation: Traffic is convenient worth a go.
Expected shopping time: 6 hours
Opening hours:
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday 10am-6pm
Thursday 10am-8pm

(5) Trafford Centre
I heard at Manchester’s Trafford Centre is Europe’s second largest Indoor shoppingcentre, with 280 stores, 35 restaurants and a movie like quilt shopping in the city under one roof. Like Bluewater, TraffordCentre brings together almost all the brands you can think of, is a major shopping and entertainment in northern England, concentration. The store closed Christmas day and year EasterSunday only two days on the straw in Boxingday friends will find surprises. The center layout is reasonable, the main store, two storeys, all straight, so long as one can stroll back and forth every corner.
Personal opinion: For friends live nearby in Manchester, this is definitely a good place, but the prices are market prices.
Evaluation: worth a visit
