Splendid China Mall (Traditional Chinese: 錦繡中華; Simplified Chinese: 锦绣中华) (formerly known as Splendid China Tower) is a 90,000-square-foot (8,400 m2) Chinese-themed ethnic shopping centre located at the southeast corner of Redlea Avenue and Steeles Avenue in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[1] It is located adjacent to Milliken GO Station and across from the Pacific Mall along with the Market Village. The structure was formerly occupied by Canadian Tire.[2]

Chinese language signs

Scarborough's local sign bylaws limit the size a business may post signs in one singular language. The signs the centre has (in Chinese characters) taken up the permitted total wall acreage, so permission had to be sought to add an English sign.[3]
