A shopping mall or shopping centre is one or more buildings forming a complex of shops representing merchandisers, with interconnecting walkways enabling visitors to easily walk from unit to unit, along with a parking area – a modern, indoor version of the traditional marketplace.

The current largest shopping centre in Europe is the MetroCentre near Newcastle upon Tyne in the UK.
