World's Largest Shopping Mall - South China Mall
Location: Dongguan, China
Size: 600,000 square metres
Leasable Space: 1,500 stores
This mall has seven zones modeled on international cities, nations and regions including Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, Venice, Egypt, the Caribbean, and California.
Although the mall opened in 2005, it suffers from a lack of retailers. Much of the retail space remain empty, with 99.2 percent of the stores vacant. Many analysts say that the main reason the mall is so far largely unoccupied is that it is located in the suburbs of Dongguan, which means that it is only practical to travel there using a car. The mall is scheduled to close in July of 2008. – WIKIPEDIA
