What impressed me most was the sheer variety of stores and exclusive merchandise available. Whether you’re a collector, a casual fan, or simply looking for unique souvenirs, there’s something interesting around every corner. The themed shops are well designed and packed with items that are difficult to find elsewhere
The only downside is the crowd. During my visit, the area was extremely busy, with many stores packed shoulder-to-shoulder and long queues forming at the more popular locations. It can be difficult to browse comfortably, especially on weekends or during peak travel periods
