Malls

Welcome to Dusseldorf, Germany!

Although my first post about Germany is about malls, I am not implying that German malls are in any way canonical of architecture or society in Germany. This post is autonomously about malls in comparison to other malls. I am drawing a comparison to malls in Hong Kong, which I originally thought where the most spectacular in the world.

The Stilwerk Mall in Dusseldorf has a glass roof that can be opened on a sunny day.





The next two photos were taken during the Summer of 2009 when I was in Hong Kong. I was honored with the presence of Tin-Shun who gave me a personal 'locals only' tour of his home town.
