Plaza de las Americas Mall
This modern mall, with marble floors, huge sky lights, a 3-screen
movie theater and even an ice-skating rink resembles a newer
American mall. The stores are an assortment of those catering
to locals and visitors. The large S-Mart grocery store is
an interesting place to browse and see the similarities and
differences with U.S stores.
Within a few blocks of the mall you'll find several stores
selling Mexican crafts and furniture, plus museums, local
restaurants and several American fast food restaurants including
Burger King, McDonalds, Church's Chicken and Golden Corral.
The ice rink opened in 1994, offers public skating everyday
with afternoon and evening hours.

Pueblito Mexicano Mall
Built to resemble a Mexican village, the indoor courtyard
looks like the town plaza with shops and restaurants around
the perimeter. It is a beautiful building with stained glass
windows and intricate stone work, but its occupancy rate has
probably never exceeded 50%. There are a few shops and restaurants,
plus a good-sized grocery store.
