The mall is not a mall it is what we call a market, but fascinating, go along and barter for wat you want, locals are really friendly and aren't too bothered if you don't buy from them!

It very interesting to see many different shops selling a variety of goods I bought about half a dozen of pashminas from one of the shops. To get to the mall we had to use a lift but you need to pay to use this facility.

even in platform shops u cannot bargain all says fixed rate..rates are not reasonable ...no special things to purchase..only snack shops are slightly good. there is no custom or local famous products are available ... the merchants are not interested in business promoting some of them are not interested to tell the rates..but just watching their mobiles.
