Odaiba: Venus Fort

VENUS FORT! The most beautiful mall in Odaiba. If you are visiting Odaiba then you definitely don't want to miss out on shopping at the Venus Fort mall. I have always dreamed of coming to this place ever since I saw it on Japanese TV shows and dramas. Everything about the mall is simply so amazing! ₍₍ ( ๑॔˃̶◡ ˂̶๑॓)◞♡















The interior design of the mall inside is inspired by the style of a 18th century South European town. The mall features over a hundred shops, fashion boutiques, cafes and restaurants on three floors including a few outlets shops on the upper 3rd floor. There are sooooooo many shops here and things to see it is simply beautiful! I really like the design of all the buildings and the little details, especially the fake "clouds ceiling" that gives an illusion that you are actually outdoors while being inside the mall. I couldn't stop admiring and looking at the pretty designs. (∩˃o˂∩)♡ It also changes colour accordingly to the time of the day from sunrise, noon, sunset to night view. Isn't it like the most amazing thing ever?! I'm just soooo in love! (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)





I got a bit hungry from shopping around the mall so I got this yummy banana and strawberry crepes as a snack to much on. XD And because crepes are soooo good in Japan! (♡´౪`♡)



After I finished eating my crepes, I headed up to the 3rd floor and took a picture down where I sat at. You can even spot the shop where I bought the crepes from which is called Momi $ Toys.














One of the most amazing thing about the Venus Fort mall is this famous water fountain in the middle on the 2nd floor. It is soooooo pretty in person. I have never seen such a pretty water fountain in my life before. I spent so much time in front of it taking pictures and recording videos at every angle, lol. I even took some shots from the 2nd floor and on the 3rd floor with a view from the top. The water fountain even changes colour at different times! 






After I was done shopping, I headed out to palette town where I went on the giant Sky Wheel. It is one of the world's tallest ferris wheel! I have a undying love for ferris wheels. I think they are soooo romantic and one of my life goals is to go on all the ferris wheels in all the countries and cities I have traveled to in the world. So far Japan is off my list. Maybe next will be London on the London Eye? But one thing I was kind of disappointed about going up the Sky Wheel was I waited to go on it at night and the view isn't as great. Plus it was super windy that day that the cart that I was sitting in kept rocking back and forth (quite scary, I know lol) and it was too dark to see anything. I attempted to take some pictures and record a video while I was up on it but they turned out too blurry and shaky due to the constant movement and rocking. XD I want to go back on this ferris wheel again when I go back to Odaiba and go up on it during the day. =) 




The ferris wheel view day and night. At night it lights up in different colours and it is sooooo pretty! Venus Fort was so amazing and beautiful. I'd definitely want to go back to visit it again and do some more shopping at the mall. 

You you can learn more about the mall and view all the shops that you can find on their official site: https://www.venusfort.co.jp/multi/index_e.html

And lastly I have recorded a video of the mall while I was strolling around. Sorry it's a bit shaky in the beginning as I was walking and trying to hold my camera to keep it as steady as possible. I also reduced the quality cuz I didn't want it to take so long to upload on YouTube but I actually recorded it in HQ.
