Ibn Battuta Mall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ibn Battuta Mall is a large shopping mall on the Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai close to Interchange 6 for Jebel Ali Village. It is named after famous traveller and explorer Ibn Battuta. The project was completed by the Nakheel Properties group in early 2005.
The mall is split into six main courts; China, India, Persia, Egypt, Tunisia and Andalusia with linking shopping and circulation areas. All the major outlets found in almost all of the shopping malls elsewhere in Dubai and the Middle East are represented. Géant, a large French supermarket chain has a store here. The mall is an example of one of the many ambitious projects by Nakheel Properties in Dubai.
Ibn Battuta Mall boasts the only IMAX theatre in the country and also offers a 21 screen Cinema Megaplex, located in the China court. There are two large foodcourts, located at both ends (Andalusia and China) of the mall, as well as several coffee shops, scattered throughout the mall.
