Uni-President Dream Mall Introduction
Dream Mall's architectural design is inspired by nature. The front building, Blue Whale Hall, features a glass curtain wall that reflects the movement of water and sky, resembling a giant blue whale swimming into the Golden Coast. The main building at the back showcases a granite façade that represents the eternity of Earth and stone. The two buildings are connected by a skybridge, akin to a large ship entering the Port of Kaohsiung at Dabaoshan. The Ferris wheel on the top floor offers a 360-degree view of the sea and cityscape, allowing visitors to enjoy the sights of Kaohsiung Harbor, Sizihwan, and Shoushan. The Ferris wheel has a diameter of 50 meters and the building's total height is 102.5 meters, with a complete rotation taking approximately 15 minutes. Its lighting changes vibrantly with six themes: spring, summer, autumn, winter, Christmas, and New Year, making it a striking feature in the night sky. The shopping center has 12 floors, with 2 underground and 10 above ground, designed around four major themes: water, flowers, nature, and the universe. Covering an area of 15,000 ping, it has a total floor space of 121,000 ping, which includes a shopping area of 78,000 ping and a parking lot of 43,000 ping with 3,000 car parking spaces. Named "Dream Mall," this shopping center caters to both shopping needs and children's entertainment, introducing major international brands, gourmet restaurants, and cinemas, with over 800 vendors. It also features indoor Go Karts, laser tag, a children's amusement area, and an exploration park incorporating VR and dinosaur elements, making it an ideal venue for family fun and shopping! Since its opening on March 30, 2007, Dream Mall has successfully attracted over 20 million visitors within the first year, becoming a new sightseeing landmark and iconic building in Taiwan. It was once selected by Forbes Traveler, a magazine under Forbes, as one of Asia's top 10 shopping malls, establishing itself as a high-standard international shopping center in Asia.
