Golden Resources Mall — Beijing, China

Golden Resources Mall, once dubbed "The Great Mall of China," commands 557,419 m² across five floors with 1,000 stores — a size that would rank #1 in most countries but here trails the New South China Mall by 102,193 m². Its indoor ice rink and massive food courts once drew millions of Beijing shoppers, yet foot traffic has plummeted 40% since 2018 due to Chinese e-commerce growth, a steeper decline than the 30% average for top-tier Asian malls. Despite this, it remains a regional powerhouse, with 200,000 daily visitors on peak weekends outpacing the typical Chinese megamall, which averages just 120,000.
