Located in Shenzhen, China — a metropolis that links Hong Kong to China's mainland — the store is about 2,625-square-feet. The store will display and sell a number of its series, including the Phatom 3 Series and the Matrice 100, along with a selection of cameras.

Here's a closer look inside the flagship store:

The store is a unique shape with lots of windows to let in light.

The interior architecture is based on the concept of "yuan," which is the Chinese world for circular. This can be seen in the flight area — a circular, closed-off area where pilots perform demonstrations.

There's also a lounge area, repair counter, and movie theater (pictured below) where people can continue to see more aerial drone content captured from around the world.
