Aviapark is the largest mall in Russia and the second biggest mall in all of Europe. It is situated in the Khoroshyovsky district of Moscow. The mall has a total floor area of 390,000 square meters. Out of the total area, 230,000 square meters is reserved for retail outlets. 

It had over 500 shops as of 2021. However, many western brands started leaving as the war in Ukraine raged on. The mall’s anchor tenants prior to the war included OBI, H&M, IKEA, Sephora, Stockmann and Auchan. All anchors, with the exception of the French retailer Auchan, have left the country. 

The mall is globally recognized for its 73 feet tall, four-story aquarium, which acts as one of its main attractions.
