The Dubai Mall is celebrating its first Christmas. The mall is in full splendour. Key areas of the mall such as Fashion Avenue, Aquarium Walk and Dubai Ice Rink have come alive with specially themed decor, tailored to the Christmas attractions.

Despite not being a traditional shopping mall, Souk Madinat Jumeirah has been decorated to look like a Christmas card. With miniature stalls selling Christmas goodies, the Souk Madinat is worth the visit during this festive season.
