This is one of the biggest shopping malls in the world. It has 1,300 stores, 200 places to eat, and spaces for 6,500 cars, so parking is never a problem! Some of the stores are expensive, but they have really nice things, and I love the restaurants – the food is great. There are a lot of other interesting things in the mall, like the underwater zoo. The water is beautiful and you can see a lot of interesting kinds of fish. The mall also has a movie theater with 26 screens, both 2D and 3D. Oh, and there’s a really big ice rink. It’s very nice on a hot day! Khaled the DUBAI mall Open times | What’s on | Getting here | Info
