A view over Mamilla shopping mall.

Mamilla Mall is a shopping street in West Jerusalem in Israel, located between Jaffa Gate and the David Citadel Hotel. The mall features an outdoor promenade and a two-level indoor section[1] as well as boutiques and fashion chain stores.[2]

In addition to retailers, the mall is also slated to house an IMAX theatre.[3][4]

The Lonely Planet describes it as the home of some of the "nicest" "posh restaurants" in Mamilla.[5] The project was originally criticized regarding archeological excavations near the Jaffa Gate[1] as well as environmental and religious objections.[2] By 2007, the project had reconstructed or reassembled many historic structures.[2]
