Jessica Brooks Review of State Department store
The State Department Store is not a cheap shopping...
The State Department Store is not a cheap shopping option. But it does offer condensed centralised shopping - from it's (usually) well-stocked supermarket to the tech floor where you can purchase local SIM cards, a currency exchange (check the rates) and it's souvenir floor.
As mentioned, there are numerous brands / cashmere outlets all on display in the one shop which provide a good general choice. There are seasonal sales as well.
Yes, there are cheaper options available throughout the city but if you're time poor, then this makes a good location to visit. Be careful of the pick-pockets though - especially in peak season. They are very very good!
