    Mega Mall
    Quite possibly the largest mall I've ever visited. Definitely the biggest I've been to in the Middle East. Well laid out, clean, with more dining, retail and entertainment options that one could get through in a week! It felt like the entire local population (and a fair expats) were wandering it's air-conditioned corridors during our visit. In a country where temperatures regularly rise above 40°C (104°F), The Avenues is THE coolest place to be.

    Impressive Mall
    My wife and I typically don’t visit malls when traveling but we were glad we visited this one. It’s huge and has lots of of distinctive areas (e.g. curved escalator; great light fixtures). It also has a good selection of restaurants at various price points. The mall is about 8 miles from downtown. I was surprised how cheap it was to get there and back. We paid 3 KWD on the way out with Careem (like Uber). We returned by taxi for only 2 KWD. Recommended.

    City mall
    The Avenues Mall is truly a remarkable destination—it's like walking through a small city filled with an incredible range of brands and shops. The sheer size and variety make it a unique shopping experience, offering something for everyone. It's also the perfect escape from Kuwait's intense heat, providing a cool and comfortable environment where you can spend hours exploring without ever stepping outside.

The Avenues is one stop destination for all who want to shop and dine at the same time . It has plenty of shopping brands and seperate sections. It has seperate section for movie lovers with multiple uptodate cinema options. It has food court serving different cuisines. It has banks, telecommunications outlets and many other options. Time to time cultural and seasonal festivities also took place at The Avenues

Nice beautiful place to do your shopping. It’s got all well know brands in one place and so with the food. Good atmosphere and good to walk around. Parking is big and it hard to locate where you park your car

It's the best shopping destination in Kuwait as well as entertainment.. the mall is really big you need more than one day to see it all if you're shopping.
It has different venues with different themes.. it has one similar to the famous Souk alMubarikeya.
Many many restaurants with all kind of cuisines.
There is also a gold market too.
2 cinemas and many playing areas for kids.
A hotel opened there recently and there is one more which is opening soon.

The largest shopping center and mall in the Middle East, and after the completion of the third phase of it and the construction of two hotels, it became one of the best shopping centers in the Middle East, and I advise all people to visit it. There are all the entertainment required for children. And there are all international clothing and accessories stores in it, and there are all the world’s goods in it. It is one of the most beautiful complexes that you will not be able to finish in one day, and you have to stay in it for at least three days in a hotel and book three nights as a minimum for an unforgettable experience.

I am not a mall person. But this is mind blowing. It has everything except clean fresh air or an open roof. But the K's haven't skimped on this place. Shop after shop, eating places, and recreated Souqs..truly if it is too hot or raining. This is where you go.
