Dubai Mall, Dubai

Standing in the shadow of the Burj Khalifa (above) is the incredible Dubai Mall. The Dubai Mall - the worlds largest Mall although dwarfed in height by this amazing building makes up for it in land mass. A few years ago on a visit to Emaar, the company responsible for building most of Dubai, they estimated that if one visited each store for just three minutes it could take at least a couple of weeks to see them all - this should give you an indication of how big this place is. Everything is on a massive, almost unhuman scale with store after store of fashion, home, food, this list goes on. Everything and anyone who is anyone is here. In the next few days I will be posting some of my images of the components that make this place up. In the meantime you can get a sneaky preview of the Fountains at the back of the Mall which light up and performing their mesmerizing display on my YouTube site:Jhvefun.
