A new shopping center was opened at the site of the legendary Wertheim Department Store in Berlin

A new shopping center was opened in Berlin, at the former site of the world famous Wertheim Department Store. According to the investors, the Mall of Berlin will be a worthy successor to the Wertheim Department Store, because at least a daily one hundred thousand visitors are accepted.

The Mall of Berlin, a 270-store complex that opened today in the city center, gives the growing numbers of tourists who visit the German capital a new place to spend their money. Within a year, it’s set to become the country’s largest shopping center as 30 percent more space is added. (Bálint Marcell, MTI)
