This place is 'unbeautifiable', people would step on flowerbeds, break down young trees and vandalize all the steel structures used. I hate the mentality of people who live in this particular region.

Oh, NO! The mall is ok, it is a typical "box house" that we have here in the US. I was referring to it's environs. Can they not do a bit of landscaping? The filth on the streets! OMG! Disgusting!



Typical American Mall

LOL, but we are moving away from those ugly boxes and we do an incredible job at landscaping. The new malls in Chicago are beauties!

In Kenya, the cannot even plant grass or do proper landscaping & a perfect example are those wilted weeds trampled on by thousands each day. All one sees along Thika Road is dirt.
