Sample answer
The shopping center that I often go to and would like to talk about is (...tell a shopping center name from your city....). This is the largest shopping center of the city and is probably the most popular one. This shopping center is at the middle of the city and is 20 storied. You can find almost everything in this shopping center and the price and quality of the products make it a popular shopping mall where people from all classes come to shop. You name it and you can find it here; from grocery shop to 3d cinema, food court to play ground, gym and thousands of shopping shops are there. The market authority imposes a strict rule about the quality and price and that's why you can find products at a reasonable price here. The neat and clean environment, the rigid security, the arranged shops and shopping convenience are the main reasons I visit this shopping mall very often. There is a dedicated floor only for social gathering and there you can sit and talk to your friends as long as you like.
I go there almost 2-3 times in a months. If there are more shopping to do or before any festival I go there more than 2-3 times. I go there not only for shopping but also some times for social gathering, party, to have lunch or dinner or to watch a movie.
There are many positive reasons why this shopping center is popular among the visitors and shoppers including security, reasonable price, shopping convenience, position of the shopping center, and convenience of parking, open space and neat environments. The interior and exterior of the shopping mall is very attractive. In the front of the building you will find a large open space; like a big park or garden. You can seat there for a long and no one is going to ask you to go away!
