~West Edmonton Mall~
|
|
The biggest mall in the world
boasts of over 800 stores including 11 major department stores. It also
houses a wave pool water park, amusement park, underwater submarine ride
(good luck if you're claustrophobic), a replica of Columbus's Santa
Maria, NHL size ice rink (Edmonton Oilers can be seen practicing here on
occasion), dolphin
show, casino, bingo hall, a billiards club, lazer tag, bungee jumping,
driving range, shooting range, rock wall climbing, go karts, 10 pin
bowling, 26 movie theatres, about 110 eating establishments which
includes a dinner theatre, and of course the 4 star Fantasyland Hotel. Have the urge to lose your car or lose
yourself???? Well this is the place to do it. This wonder covers
about 48sq city blocks. Speaking of wonders, WEM is often referred to as
the 8th Wonder of the World. Perhaps this has more to do with how many
times you wonder which Entrance you came in as opposed to how many
"wonders" it holds inside. :-)
