Americans to go to. Some people spend so much time at malls that
they are called “mall rats”. Mall rats shop until they drop in
the hundreds of stores under one roof.
People like malls for many reasons. They feel safe because malls
have police stations of private security guards. Parking is usually
free, and the temperature inside is always fine. (61) The newest
malls have beautiful rest areas with waterfalls and tall green
trees. The
largest mall in the
United States is the Mall of America in Minnesota. It covers 4.2
million square feet. It has 350 stores, eight night clubs, and a
seven-acre park! There are parking spaces for 12,750 cars. About
750,000 people shop there every week. The
first indoor mall in the United States was built in 1965 in Edina,
Minnesota. People love doing all their shopping in one place. More
malls are built where people come to do many things. They shop, of
course, they also eat in food courts that have food from all over
the world. They see movies at the theatres. Some people even get
their daily exercise by doing the new sport of “mall walking”.
Others go to malls to meet friends. In
some malls, people can see a doctor or a dentist and even go to the
church. In other words, people can do just about everything in
malls. (62) Now people can even live in their favourite shopping
malls.
