A Palace of the surplus in the city is obsessed with excessiveness, and The Dubai Mall is a giant spending, enticing people to stay, eat, shop, and leave with their wallets a lot lighter.
Like most shopping malls, and the carving this one to about twelve regions under a different title to make it a little more human scale and retailers package together.
Emphasis on the place of the center as a destination for an entire day and not just a quick shopping trip, it includes an aquarium, a garden, a cinema, skating rink and the ice, and other entertainment features.
Over the decades there have been a series of "the largest shopping centers in the world" are designed to separate shoppers from their money. While it used to be years or decades between crown changes before, things are different now that Dubai and the rest of the developing world in the game. Do not be surprised to see something bigger in a few years.
