My day at The Avenues
The Avenues mall in Fifth Ring Road, Al – Rai is considered the largest shopping mall in Kuwait. It is home to well–known European brands of clothing, shoes, bags, and accessories for children, women, and men. International restaurants and cafes from all 5 continents abound to suit each expat’s taste. Its state-of-the-art design and lighting catch everyone’s awe.
The Avenues is one of the concrete plans to transform Kuwait into a business and trade center, attracting the global market. This is where elegance and style meet and perform well. As an OFW blogger, I have a schedule to maintain but I also would like to unwind when I feel pressure from work, homesickness, and lethargy begin to take its toll on me.
“So…off to The Avenues I go to shop! Yes, you read it right, I shop. Window shopping half of the time I am at The Avenues. I feast my eyes on those signature brands that make many women like me mesmerized at the sight of these. Sometimes, I wish that my parents were here with me so they too can see how large and beautiful this mall is. But then I remember, I have a family that needs my support back in the Philippines.”
“But I don’t totally hurt myself of the good feeling. And so, the other half of my time at The Avenues is spent wisely. I eat !”

This mall surely offers a pleasant sight to tourists. How often do you go there to ease stress?
Not very often though, always busy. Thanks.
The design of the mall is both refreshing and contemporary. Malls are always great place to de-stress.
A shopping Mall and a good place to relax and just make tambay 🙂 ganda ng lugar 🙂
The design of the mall is pretty impressive. It has a lot of creativity which makes shopping and dining a different kind of experience.
SHOP ’til your EYES drop… OMG! This is such a high-end mall. Well, it’s better to buy what we need and not what we want especially when money does not come easy.
As luxurious as that mall looks, are there a few affordable choices for clothes and food too?
That shopping center really looks very elegant – which could only mean that prices are bound to be high, I presume 😀 Window shopping can be fun, too 😉
If we have malls like that here in the Philippines I wouldn’t mind working my ass off because I know I have a wonderful place to destress myself.
Not as big as SM but the place offers a refreshing atmosphere for mall hoppers. Mura din ba ang mga items dyan?
the place looks grand but no people in sight, how about the prices of designer brands?
