The following pictures are from the Ibn Batuta mall. he was an explorer who lived in the 14th century. Each area in the mall is decorated to look like a country he visited. Unfortunately they don't have a little market square at the entrance to each area where they could sell local wares from that particular country. It would have made it more authentic. But it was really a fantastic mall.
I bought this one, a red Tabriz rug.
I love shopping for Persian rugs in The Middle East. We went to the Madinat Jumeira shopping mall. It is built like an old zouk, and has a lot of atmosphere. It is right down by the Burge al Arab.
Where can you find a shopping Mall with an Aquarium and a waterfall? In Dubai of course.
