These Are The U.S.' Biggest Malls (And They're Impressive)

For those who could shop ‘till they drop, the “average” mall is simply too small for an afternoon’s worth of walking around. Serious shoppers want more bang for their buck, so they seek out the shopping meccas that are monumental. Their “go big” mentality is all about maximizing their mall time.

Most Americans have been to a mall at least at one point in their lives, be it the one nearest them or one they’ve traveled to for something specific. Maybe they were visiting friends or family in another state and everyone went shopping for the day. With so much to peruse, it’s the perfect way to pass the time. Plus, the food court is always enjoyable after spending so much energy on raiding the racks and scouring shelves.

Some malls in America are amazing. They’re huge! With so many stores and other attractions, these “mega-malls” are unbelievably over-the-top. Shoppers have to set aside plenty of time so they can get into every nook and cranny. For most, a full day at the mall isn’t even enough time to see it all. Good thing they’re open all week!

These five monstrosities of malls below are among America’s biggest. The square-footage and high volume of shoppers make these malls worth seeing. Once you set foot inside, you’ll clearly understand why people come from miles away just to experience the enormity of it all.
