DUBAI MALL

The Ibn Battuta Shopping Mall is named after the 14th Century explorer Ibn Battuta who spent 29 years travelling
through the Middle East and Asia. The Mall is divided into six courts each based on the areas the explorer visited during
his travels: China, India, Egypt, Tunisia, Persia and Andalusia.
Each Court is decorated to resemble each of these areas of the world and it certainly makes for an interesting walk
around with many beautifully decorated ceilings, sculptures, boats and mini displays.
The shopping in the mall has a good mixture of well known brand names and individual retailers, which might mean you
will find some things you cant in any of the other malls. The China court houses a 21 screen cinema including UAEs
very first IMAX theatre. The major food court can be found in Tunisia Court, however there are a couple of restaurants in
China Court and many other pit stops dotted around the rest of the mall.
The mall when viewed from the outside seems to run forever, spread across a huge area of land with a total of ten
different car parks. Because of its design walking through the mall means you have to double back on yourself to get
back to your car but its not as big as it looks fortunately and theres always something to grab your eye that you may
have missed first time through.
I would visit this mall just because of its fantastic design and concept and try and grab an IMAX film whilst youre there.
