Villagio mall is a shameless copy of the Venetian Casino/Mall in Macau, China. Since when did Qatar start copying China, LOL!

And in response to the orginal poster - yes, what about "families"? what is it with "families" in qatar? i don't get it. "Families"... "Bachelors" (why do they use this word in a negative context here?!!). Learn to look at people as people first, and show some respect.

malls are places to hang out for most people, in most parts of the world. especially for teens (who usually can't get into pubs and clubs). especially asia (where everyone hangs out in massive malls). or, in case of Macau, filled to the rafters with h00kers :D
