The recently opened Morinomiya Q's Mall in Japan is a phenomenal new take on the retail shopping experience thanks to a [state-of-the-art track that spans the roof](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skybowl) of the building. The unique integration of fitness and retail is just one example of how retailers are reinventing the shopping experience in order to appeal to the consumer's senses.

The Morinomiya Q's Mall also boasts a soccer field, while the running track has three lanes.

This combination of fitness and retail at the Morinomiya Q's Mall is surely the first of many in a time when traditional service providers are rethinking their offerings. Similarly, several airports have reimagined the travel experience to include green space, athletic facilities and more.
