With over 350 shops and more than 2.4 million square feet of prime retail and leisure space, the Mall of the Emirates is one of the biggest Malls. The development combines contemporary design with traditional Arabic architecture with every section having a distinctive style and a unique atmosphere. The interior ... is a myriad of arcades, which culminate in a spectacular galleria at the heart of the development, marked with an impressive domed skylight 12 storeys in height, allowing light to flood into the Galleria. It is the first destination in the Middle East where people can experience shopping, entertainment and skiing all in one place.
