Wednesday, February 17, 2010





Ibn Batutta mall is located just off on theSheikh Zayed road which heading towards Abu Dhabi and it is a bit far from the Dubai city centre. The Ibn Battuta Mall is a large shopping mall themed around the journeys of Ibn Battuta, the famous legendary exlplorer and traveller and the mall is centered with a special rich collection of information about Ibn Battuta.The mall is less crowded compare to other huge malls in Dubai such as Emirates mall.


When I first stepped in to the mall, I was fully amazed by the architecture and arts of the building inside. It looks like streets during the old time with a unique building and the man-made sky above the ceiling. was a breath-taking experience!


About Ibn Batutta:
Abu Abdullah Muhammad Ibn Abdullah Al Lawati Al Tanji Ibn Battuta
Arabic: أبو عبد الله محمد ابن عبد الله اللواتي الطنجي بن بطوطة‎ or simply Ibn Battuta (February 25, 1304 – 1368 or 1369) was a Moroccan Berber Muslim scholar and traveller who is known for the account of his travels and excursions called the Rihla (Voyage) in Arabic. His journeys lasted for a period of nearly thirty years and covered almost the entirety of the known Islamic world and beyond, extending from North Africa, West Africa, Southern Europe and Eastern Europe in the West, to the Middle East, Indian subcontinent, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and China in the East, a distance readily surpassing that of his predecessors and his near-contemporary Marco Polo.
