Night Shopping Circus
October 7, 2018
I think the Atrium City shopping street in Qingdao is meant to be experienced at night. It seemed pretty dead when I visited in midday on a trip in 2015. But if the shopping left me underwhelmed, the fake night sky and sense of otherworldliness did impress. I hadn’t read the book The Night Circus yet, but looking back at the pictures, that’s what Atrium City’s night sky reminds me of today.
