The newest shopping centre in Niš opened its doors on 31 March 2011 in the very heart of the city. Nearly 50 shops, offering over one hundred different brands of clothing, accessories and other items occupy the centre's 17,000m² of space. Shops include such notable international names as New Yorker, Orsay, Bata, Sephora, Ecco, Time Out, Deichmann and Levi's among many others. The facilities also include restaurants, cafés and currency exchanges. The light, airy and ultra-modern building was designed by international architectural firm Chapman Taylor, and overseen by head architect Gerardo Sanella, who was working in Serbia for the first time. In addition to its convenient location, the Forum is also open every day.
