Spent 1-2 hours Shopping Malls
A place to peacefully shop from groceries to perfumes and textiles or have a movie date. A few eateries opened and a children’s play amusement park located outside . For people who don’t want to goes to various stores then this mall covers most needs having all under one roof .. avoid during public holidays as a lot of locals find it entertaining to just go in and take selfies with you in the background for fun .. for those who like privacy this may be annoying. And it’s gets overly crowded on public holidays and close to movie times. Off peak time is best for those in a hurry to go in and out. See more..
