Very nice mall. Optimum mall has a lot of the standard smaller stores in the US like Nike, Puma,…read moreStarbucks, Lego store and H&M. It also has a lot of stores not familiar to me. I was even more surprised to see Popeyes, Arby's and (not a surprise) McDonalds. This place does have free parking under the mall. Before entering the mall you do have to go through a metal detector and your purse gets scanned. Make sure you look at the ceiling to observe the beautiful art work. On the top floor, where the food court is, there is a an outdoor patio with a beautiful view of the Mosque across the street.

This is a really nice mall. It is several stories tall with a mixture clothing, cosmetic, jewelry,…read moreetc. My favorite places to go though were the home stores.....They were very successful in getting me to open up my pocketbook! There is a food court, not necessarily a sit down restaurant - but you can find some good food. It is just down the street from the Grand Sheraton, and there is a nice park across the street. It is also in close proximity to downtown and all is very walkable when you want to walk off that ice cream you just had. It is definitely a place I would go back to.

I have been to this particular mall once and I liked what I saw for the most part. To begin with…read morethe parking is hands down much easier than going to the Optimum..even on a Sunday! We walked around to the different stores just to see what was all in this mall. I think that most of the prices were a little higher than at the Optimum when I was comparing running shoes (Nike) and toys. This mall has a nice variety of clothing stores as well as shoe stores. I didn't not eat at the food court, but I was very pleased to see several different options. My son was very happy to see McDonalds! We stopped by one of the ice cream vendors in the middle of the mall. With scoops of chocolate and cherry I was very please to pay 7 TL total for both cones. It was very tasty and will definitely be stopping by again on our next visit. We walked around the whole mall in less than an hour and a half so this mall is definitely on the smaller scale, but I enjoyed it. I look forward to coming back and giving a more thorough review after trying some food at the food court.

This mall is further away from the military base and takes 2 different bus rides to get there so i…read moredon't get to visit it as often as the the other mall in adana. Also this mall is more of an american feeling mall to me, so i enjoy that, by american feeling i mean its all one level, larger because of that aspect, and I like that more than the other malls in the area. Also it is away from pretty much everything so you don't get all the crowd. I enjoy coming here to pretty much shop for anything you would typically need in a mall. they also have a movie theater here that is really nice and always showing new movies, and when you are coming to see a movie you might like to grab a bite to eat, and the food court has a good amount of variety food to offer with reasonable prices. The movies do an intermission so just incase you are coming to watch a movie there will be a pause in the middle of the showing so you can have time to go the bathroom, grab a snack or something to drink which is very nice and sometimes needed. The place i ate at in the food court was the potato spot where they take a baked potato and mix it with cheese and butter then add all the ingredients you choose to fill the inside. it is a little weird looking but trust me when i say its a must try, because it is so delicious. I will miss them when i eventually leave this country. All in all this is a mall, so you will get what your coming for, if you feel like getting a little further away from the city and going to a mall check out the M1, its different.

This is a great store if you are looking for New Balance shoes. They offer a very large variety of…read moreunisex as well as men and women's shoes. We were looking for 574's, and were very happy to find a full wall to choose from. It seemed to me the majority was unisex shoes, but one wall was set aside for men and women's too. They also had a decent smaller wall selection for children's shoes. If you were looking for sweatshirts or t-shirts you can find some of them as well but not a huge selection.

Very small base with an even smaller BX. I will say that for a small BX the options or varieties…read moreare even smaller. Your best bet is to buy through the AAFES catalog, AAFES website, Amazon, or whatever website you prefer if you are looking for something particular that isn't in mass distribution. I will admit that the employees are always nice and willing to help with whatever need you might have or be looking for. During non-busy hours you can check out rather quickly. However, I do get frustrated when it's the busy time of day for customers (lunches), and there is only on cashier working the check out lines. You can see several people waiting patiently in line since this is a common occurrence. Attached in the entrance of the BX you have Burger King, Pizza Hut, and Taco Bell available for lunch and dinner. Burger King offers breakfast too. Once you walk past the food court you will notice a Yilmaz jewelry counter. He offers watch batteries, minor repairs, jewelry galore, and custom made designs.

It's a pretty small BX and they don't have many of the things you would think they would always…read morehave, ie they have been out of bike locks for a week and everyone rides a bike here. Also when asked if they had some other products that were out on the shelf I was told they had a bunch in the back but were going through three truckloads and to give it a couple days & I've seen pallets just sitting out not being unloaded and it's not busy, wonder if they need workers? . This isn't my favorite bx and being overseas it would be nice not to have to order everything online. They don't have a gnc which I thought was as common to military stores as Burger King is (which is in here). I guess it is what it is, but I won't hesitate to go look at Turkish mall for things may need
