The Dubai Mall!

Ok. So I'm back after a long hiatus. Haven't posted here for quite some time! Nevertheless, I shall try to keep updating here as much as I can. The last year or two has not been a really good time for Dubai as it was really badly hit by the recession. However, everything seems to be back to normal now and the guys here are getting back to their obsession with building the largest/tallest stuff in the world.

Ok now. jokes aside, I recently visited the Dubai Mall. Well, I've been there several times, but this is the first time I'm writing about it here, I think. As most of you know, it is officially the world's largest shopping mall. What people find there that they don't find at the Mall of Emirates, I don't know. But like every other building in Dubai, this has something unique to offer.

The major attraction here has to be the three storey walk in aquarium. Yes you did hear that right. It has a walk in aquarium. There was quite a situation last year when the aquarium developed a crack and people had to be evacuated. It's sad that I wasn't there to witness that. I'm quite sure it must have been epic! You can very easily get lost in here. Being a movie buff myself, I had to visit the Reel Cinemas. Man, it's bigger than I thought. Trust me, watching a movie here is money well spent. Now I'm sure you've all seen the malls in the USA or Singapore and you're probably thinking that this is just another run-of-the-mill mall. Well, just give it a shot. I'm sure you'll be surprised.

Right now, I'm too lazy to upload pictures of Dubai Mall. Hopefully when this lazy spell wears off, I'll upload pics of bigger and better stuff at Dubai!
