Suzhou Centre(Near XingHai Square)

Suzhou Center Mall is Suzhou’s largest shopping mall, with close to 300,000 sqm of gross floor area and more than 600 brands. Located at the western end of Jinji Lake beside the Gate of the Orient, it is one of the city’s major shopping, dining and entertainment destinations.

Shopping covers international and Chinese fashion, beauty, sports, outdoor, technology and lifestyle brands. As of September 2026, the standout tenant is Apple Suzhou, the city’s official Apple Store, occupying a prominent two-level space facing the main plaza. Other major names include Nike, adidas, lululemon, Arc'teryx and The North Face, alongside hundreds of other brands.

There’s also a huge choice of restaurants, cafés, dessert shops and casual dining. The most popular restaurants can attract long queues at peak times, particularly at weekends and around dinner time.
Beyond shopping and food, entertainment and leisure facilities include a CGV cinema and the Olympic-size Champion Rink ice rink, while exhibitions, pop-ups, brand launches and other activities take place throughout the year.

Suzhou Center is directly connected to Dongfangzhimen (Gate of the Orient) Metro Station on Lines 1 and 3. Its location also puts it within easy walking distance of Jinji Lake, the Gate of the Orient and the surrounding lakeside area.
