Indigo Mall (颐堤港) is Swire Properties’ second mixed-use development (opened in 2012 after Taikoo LiSanlitun) consisting of a comprehensive mid-level and upscale mall, the One Indigo Grade-A office building, and EAST, BEIJING lifestyle business hotel. It is a beautiful property with a great range of restaurants, shops, movie theatre and its signature vast indoor airy space that’s covered by a sweeping glass rooftop in the Lido area of Beijing. Learn more about Indigo Mall and its continual development.

Located in the heart of the Lido area of Beijing, Indigo Mall is located just 15 minutes from the Beijing Capital International Airport and the CBD. It’s situated by the 4th Ring Road, close to the 798 Art District, and just a 10-minute drive away from Taikoo Li Sanlitun and other downtown destinations. Best of all, Beijing Subway Line 14 will open by the end of 2014 with a direct connection to the mall. Until the connected subway line opens, Indigo Mall is easily accessible by public bus, with the closest bus stop, Jiuxianqiao (酒仙桥), served by Beijing Bus No. 401, 402, 408, 418, 621, 656, 659, 677, 688, 701, 909, 946, 955, 973, 976, 988, 991 and Yuntong 107.

One of the many great qualities of Indigo Mall is its great variety of international brands and international cuisine. Brands include: :CHOCOOLATE, adidas, AMERICAN TOURISTER, ANNE KAREN, bla bla bla, Calvin Klein, CROCS, DC, DKNY JEANS, GAP, G-STAR RAW, GUESS, H&M, Milan Station, Moleskin, MUJI, Page One bookstore, Tommy Hilfiger and many more. Dining options include popular Beijing eateries: Blue Frog, Element Fresh, FLAMME, Hercules, Muse, Tai Hing Private Kitchen, THE MIDDLE – 8th, and many more. As for entertainment, there’s a children’s indoor playground area and a CGV XINGXING International Cinema with state-of-the art equipment that even offers a VIP experience with luxurious sofas and plenty of room to stretch out.

So far, nearly two years after its opening, Indigo Mall is still not fully developed, but is sure to reach full occupancy once the connected Subway Line 14 opens. The beauty about this property is that its developer, Swire Properties, has done a great job maintaining the property to its highest standards like its sister property Taikoo Li Sanlitun. It’s very much still in its growing stages and has yet to reach its potential. So far it’s a shopper’s hidden gem of a mall, because it offers much quality selection without the huge crowds. Indigo Mall’s full potential won’t be realized until its connected subway station opens by the end of 2014, so take advantage of not having a long wait at its many great eateries until then.
