Villaggio Mall is a shopping mall located in the Aspire Zone in the west end of Doha, the capital city of Qatar. It is located on Al Waab street between the Hyatt Plaza and Sports City and has over 200 stores, including many famous brands in the U.S., U.K., Italian and German markets.[3]
The mall has direct access to the Aspire Tower hotel, and has a Doha Metro station nearby. It was built along with the Aspire Zone for the 2006 Asian Games.
Inside, the interiors are Italianate-themed both as an Italian hill town, but also with a 150-meter long indoor canal with gondolas.
The Mall was partially re-opened on September 20, 2012, after meeting strict safety standards following the May fire that resulted in 19 deaths. The mall has since fully reopened, even with expanisions and extra capacity.
