Gateway Mall in Durban

Gateway Mall, also known as Gateway Theatre of Shopping, is a popular shopping destination located in the Umhlanga suburb of Durban, South Africa. The mall is one of the largest in the southern hemisphere, covering a total area of 370,000 square meters with over 400 stores and a variety of entertainment options. Gateway Mall is conveniently situated just a few kilometers from the King Shaka International Airport, making it an ideal location for tourists to visit.

Gateway Mall has a rich history, having opened its doors to the public in September 2001 with only 150 stores. It has since undergone significant expansions, including the addition of a wave park, a skate park, a science center, and an IMAX cinema. The mall's unique design, which features a large Egyptian-themed courtyard, complete with a replica of the Great Pyramid of Giza, has also attracted visitors from around the world. With its diverse range of shopping outlets, restaurants, and entertainment facilities, Gateway Mall is an excellent option for tourists looking to indulge in some retail therapy while on vacation in Durban.
