Amusement parks, ice-skating rinks, waveRolex pools, and IMAX theatres—believe it or not, these are all found inside of select malls around the world. And although many know of Minnesota's Mall of America, which continues to be a popular road trip destination, the shopping centers that beat it in both size and attractions require an international voyage. So we spilled the beans; the most shocking malls are not within the United States, but can you guess where they are? Here's a hint: although mall culture is typically associated with North America's suburban malls, a continent on the other side of the world is taking their malls a thousand times more seriously, not to mention larger. Join us in awe, won't you, as we run down the The World's Top Five Most Shocking Malls, after the jump. New South China Mall in Dongguan, China We're talking sheer size with this one, since the New South China Mall is ranked second in the world and has room for over 1,500 stores. It's so large, that it's divided into country-themed areas, sort of like Disney's Epcot Center. You'll find Amsterdam, Paris (with a replica Arc de Triomphe), Rome, Venice (with a replica St. Mark's Square and Campanile), Egypt, the Caribbean, and California. What'sreplica watches even more remarkable is how this mall stands mainly empty, the grandness going to waste aside for a few western brands that have moved in. 本日志相关的主题:
