A huge beautiful Dubai Mall with a huge park next to the fountains. There are 4 floors in the center, beautifully decorated, aquarium, excavators, toilets, exchangers, coffee and restaurants. Anything that pleases the soul, of course, for our money. All souvenirs are expensive. We are here with an excursion to everything about everything, including fountains, we were given exactly 2 hours! If someone was late, they had to take a taxi back. Of course, 2 hours is very very short. The only thing we managed to buy was a phone. Fortunately, they knew in advance that the equipment was on the top floor. It was a quest! As soon as they let us go, we rushed to look for a toilet, found a huge queue there, then looked for exchangers-we found time to walk around and see something else! Then immediately to the 4th floor for the phone, weighing all the pros and cons, using a translator on the phone and bypassing all 3 departments with a cell phone, pouring out seven pots we bought! The sellers are all polite, name-calling, explained that you can return the tax free (tax) at the airport, they gladly sold us a Samsung phone, handing us a bunch more gifts!
And of course, we didn't have time to see the aquarium and especially the fountains, we spent the remaining 30 minutes looking for the departure point where we need to return at exactly 21:00.
My advice is not to combine shopping and excursions in this case. But so we went as far as 100 km to Dubai, of course we wanted to catch two birds with one stone!

An amazing place both in terms of scale and service. A huge number of shops, for different tastes and wallets. There are taxis inside the shopping center, paid and free, it is very convenient to travel long distances with children. The candy store turned out to be expensive, the same sweets in ordinary stores turned out to be much cheaper. A lot of entertainment: an ice rink, a fountain, an aquarium. A large selection of cafes. On the ground floor, you can leave the cafe on the terrace and watch the singing fountains at dinner in the evening.

Everything is fine in it, there are many brands, the network price tag is the same in the UAE, the price is very high in retail boutiques or franchises, many brands can be bought cheaper in other shopping centers, it seemed to me that Nike had some sky-high prices + of course we do not forget that you can still return 5% by issuing a Tax Free refund. If you did not come for shopping , there are many interesting places to relax and take photos, I will highlight, a dinosaur skeleton, a waterfall with divers for pearls , Burj Khalifa with dancing fountains , an aquarium and a zoo, from the Apple store there is access to a balcony with a seating area and a very beautiful view of the fountain. And of course, there were some disadvantages, if you want to take a taxi from the Mall parking lot, you either need to pay 3 times more than the usual price tag to a private driver, whom you will find right in the parking lot, there are a lot of them. Or how can we wait from 1 hour or more for a taxi ordered from the app at an adequate price , but it is almost impossible to find it in the parking lot , geolocation in the basement is incorrectly displayed , there are just thousands of cars that are traveling in a stream , calling the driver and naming the parking section did not help either (. The evening was definitely ruined 🫣 for this , not I'm going to shoot a star. We concluded for ourselves that it is easier to go to any hotel near the Burj Khalifa and just call a taxi to it , or if you treat the subway normally , you can go to the station from the Mall and take the subway to the right place.
