An ice rink in the middle of the desert is possible only in Dubai. In one of the largest malls in the world, ice and marine life come together to offer a unique spectacle to those who choose to attend it.
In this place there is no room for imagination and shopping also comes with an extra. The Dubai Mall is undoubtedly one of the city’s most impressive attractions and possesses a series of qualities that do not exist anywhere else on the planet, making shopping not just that, but also a unique and unforgettable experience.
Ice and marine wildlife: the most incredible details of the Dubai Mall
Near the Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Mall is one of the most emblematic spots in the city, where you can find everything you need. It has 1,200 stores, including brands like Dior, Chanel, or Louis Vuitton, in addition to the best restaurants.
However, shopping doesn’t have to be ordinary, and the Dubai Mall offers a unique detail: an ice skating rink called Dubai Ice Rink. This place is Olympic-sized and is available for children to have fun while their parents shop, although they can join as well. Besides having fun, you can also play a game of Broomball.
Ice and magic in the water: the aquatic experience in the shopping center
However, as if they were exotic attractions, the mall has an impressive point of interest that sets it apart from the rest of the world. In this shopping center is located the largest Aquarium and Underwater Zoo in Dubai, which is found on the third floor of this site. This attraction houses 140 marine species. Additionally, it features a main tank that is 51 meters long, 20 meters wide, and 11 meters high, making it one of the largest suspended aquariums on the planet.
In this attraction, you can stroll through its 48-meter tunnel, which offers a 360-degree view of the entire aquarium and watch the bull sharks and rays. You can also take a glass-bottomed boat ride or dive in a cage underwater and go diving to swim among sharks. The zoo area hosts an amazing variety of animals, such as a crocodile weighing 750 kg and 5 meters long.
