half the run down of the mall front
Time to check out the world's largest shopping mall!
The grand entrance lobby area
Niffy!
Towering ribbons is always nice
Here we are at the boutique shops
The place is crawling with designer labels
There are just oo many of them
Just to name afew
The stores are really nicely themed too
It's simply a splurger's paradise
They can all be found in one collective area
Called this!
They have this cool touch info panels for directories, but are rather laggy
The basement shops
The star atrium
Did I say STARS?
Few of the long walkways with goes on forever
Not too far off is the Waterfront Promenade
Which is essentially a large man-made lake
and home to the Palace old town
The address at dubai mall
Reflective views of the lake
Back in the AC environment of the mall
Seeing more stars!
Checking out the gold souk
Which is essentially an upper class gold souk
just like what we saw back at the outdoor markets previously
Many of the large themed cafe areas
All in air-conditioned comfort
Fountains play at the mall lake every half hour
Behold, the Dubai Fountain!
Water Kaboom!
You get choreographed jets with music
Ending with spectacular tall water jets
The next highlight in the mall will include
You guessed it, in the world's largest mall, we have..
the world's largest indoor aquarium
Complete with niffy starlight overhead
It stretches for quite a distance..
Even with it's own Guinness plaque to boot
Everybody love sharks!
There is quite an array of marine life in the tank
including man made wooden piers for a weathered look
The underwater tunnel, seen from outside
Biggest in everything is always Dubai's tradition
And we are lovin' it
Let head on in!
Inside the central tunnel
Anyone feeling blue?
