A large multi-purpose complex directly connected to JR Kumamoto Station, this 9-story building stands out as a landmark worthy of Kumamoto’s gateway.

With a retail area of Approx. 49,200 square meters, its spacious floors are home to more than 180 shops and restaurants. The lineup covers a wide range of categories, including fashion, gourmet food, lifestyle goods, and entertainment, with a supermarket, movie theater, and hotel also listed on the floor map.

Beyond its appealing tenants, the soaring atrium space that runs continuously from the 1st to the 7th floor has also become a highlight. Named the multilevel garden “Boken no Mori,” this area features a 10-meter waterfall, objects made from natural stone and rock, and an abundance of trees and plants, creating an indoor space where visitors can experience the feel of nature in every season.
