Overview
The Mall of Arabia is due to open in 2010 and is wholly unique in terms of its sheer size, capacity and diversity. It is destined to become one of the world’s finest shopping resorts.
With more than 1,000 retail outlets, each offering diversity and variety, two rooftop hotels, the incredible Restless Planet ‘edutainment’ experience, and waterfront al fresco dining and entertainment experiences for the entire family, the Mall of Arabia will be a ‘retail resort’ to please everyone.
The mall will be the point of entry and departure for the Restless Planet dinosaur-theme park, which is being designed in collaboration with the Natural History Museum of London. The majority of the car parking spaces will be on two floors under the Mall, so that visitors can take escalators directly to destinations of their choice.
