I have been there a couple of times at this point and I have to say that it is one the best malls I have been to. It is not because of the size of the mall but the diversity, and organization of the mall. They did a really good job of bunching up shops of similar interests within the same area to make easier for the shopper to find what they want, compare prices, and find different brans of the same product. This is the case for every type of product, and there is a very large entertainment center, skiing, a few food courts, a cinema, and everything else you could want in a mall.

The Avenues could be comparable in size but the it is no comparison when it comes to the quality and diversity of the stores. The Mall of the Emirates targets every possible consumer, there is something for everyone, The Avenues currently only targets women, and there wasn’t much organization in place of the shops.

Every time I go to the Dubai I always go to the Mall of the Emirates when I have time since its always fun to walk around there.
