Dubai is famous for her themed shopping malls. Dragon Mart is one of such type of typical themed shopping mall .Whenever you enter in this mall, you'll feel that you are in a place of ancient Chinese tradition.
According to Dragon Mart Official Website,this mall is the largest trading hub for various Chinese products and a platform for traders of Chinese goods in Middle East and North African markets.
Dragon Mart is in the China premise of Dubai International City. Dubai International City is actually a very large place where people all around the world come to reside.
