Dubai Mall

The Dubai Mall is the largest mall in the world at 3.77 million sq ft. A couple big features of this mall are a five star hotel, an ice rink, the biggest candy store in the world (Candylicious), a replica of London's Regent Street, and one of the largest aquariums in the world. It has more than 1,200 stores and an indoor theme park called Sega Republic. In 2011, more than 54 million people visited Dubai Mall which is more than visited New York City.  More information: http://www.businessinsider.com/photos-of-the-dubail-mall-2012-9?op=1

One of the most prominent features in the mall is this huge waterfall.


This section is called the Star Atrium — you can see how it got the name.
