There’s something surreal about pulling up to the Mall of the Emirates and being greeted not by ordinary parking-lot sedans, but by a glittering lineup of supercars – machines so beautiful they could be in a museum. Yet there they were, parked under the protected shade of the entrance to the Mall of the Emirates.
Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and more – each one crafted with obsessive precision and built for people who don’t have to ask the price. I walked by them in awe, almost like they were sculptures. Honestly, I just marveled at how power and design can merge into something so intoxicating. And – how much money was parked in front of me like it was just a casual, everyday occurrence.
Inside, the Mall of the Emirates lives up to the spectacle. Opened in 2005, it was envisioned as more than just a shopping center – it’s a temple to luxury and leisure, blending retail with over-the-top experiences.
And yes, it’s the mall with a ski mountain inside. It’s pretty impressive, no matter how many times you’ve seen it on Instagram.

I wandered into Harvey Nichols “just to look” and walked out with a pair of Gucci glasses I still wear almost every since day – even a few years later.
Beyond the luxury boutiques and the surreal indoor ski slopes, the Mall of the Emirates is, at its heart, a massive, buzzing shopping playground. Wandering its polished corridors with my partner was pure fun, a leisurely adventure in itself. We strolled, browsed, and soaked it all in before heading back to prepare for our Evening Desert Safari in Dubai with Arabian Adventures Experience.
