What’s It?

Dubai’s nature-inspired shopping mallCity Mall gets its first store and we can’t be more excited. Carrefour is the first store to open in the new mall and we simply can’t wait to go grocery shopping.

The new hypermarket sprawls across 109,000 sq ft and lets you pick fruits, vegetables, meat, fish and much more, while chilling on Mother Nature’s lap. Isn’t that awesome? The hypermarket also boasts a healthy kitchen aisle, on-the-go food counters and cuisines from across the world.

Once you enter, you will be treated to a huge fountain in the centre, surrounded by trees. As you breathe in some fresh air, you are thrown into a sprawling huge central area designated solely for landscaping. The areas is spread across 5.7 acres in winter and 4.5 acres in summer and will house blooms from some of the most beautiful plants, varying with the weather conditions. That’s not all! Green patches are distributed all throughout the mall, giving you a shopping experience like never before.
