After the usual Dubai construction delays, it only opened 2 years late, in November 2008. Some Dubai residents thought the new mall deserved top spot on their whine list but we think The Dubai Mall is great. If (or when) you visit, have a look at one of the largest fish tanks in the world, buy some books at Kinokuniya BookWorld, walk through the gold souk area, have a look at the indoor waterfall, watch a movie at Reel Cinemas, get an adrenaline fix at Sega Republic, and go for a quiet coffee at The Grove. Or head next door to Souk Al Bahar after your shopping expedition and have a meal overlooking the Burj Dubai Lake while watching the Dubai Fountain. After 04 January 2009, you'll also be able to head to the Burj Dubai observation deck for a spectacular view over Dubai. There are information kiosks everywhere in the mall, with helpful attendants to answer your questions (although you'll often get different answers if you ask more than one), and information brochures with maps and a list of shops. This is the Dubai Mall — an absolutely massive shopping center in Dubai, UAE that's part of the $20 billion Burj Khalifa complex. It first opened in 2008 to much fanfare, and it boasts a variety of things to do aside from shop at its 600+ stores. The mall has a 22-screen movie theater, a replica of London's Regent Street, an Olympic-sized ice skating rink and much more. The mall is now the world's most-visited shopping destination, having attracted upwards of 54 million visitors in 2011. Outside the Dubai Mall there's a gorgeous promenade where people hang out. The Dubai mall hosts a lot of events. Here's a fashion show with a runway right in the middle of one of the mall's open areas. The aquarium in the mall is home to more than 33,000 marine animals and the massive viewing panel holds the Guinness World Record for largest acrylic panel. The mall is also home to an Olympic-sized ice skating rink — the first of its kind in Dubai. dubai mall, the dubai mall, dubai mall cinema, dubai mall aquarium, dubai malls, dubai mall stores, dubai mall pictures, dubai mall hotel, hotels near dubai mall, dubai mall fountain video, the address dubai mall, dubai mall location, burj dubai, dubai mall map, dubai mall fountain, dubai mall dubai, mall of emirates, dubai, dubai hotel, dubai city, dubai mall images, dubai mall movies, cinema dubai mall, hotel dubai mall, hotels in dubai mall, hotel in dubai mall
