Gateway Theatre of Shopping

Shopping Centres
When one thinks of Durban shopping, one of the first places that comes to mind is Gateway Theatre of Shopping. Gateway is a relatively new addition to the Durban shopping mall collection, and it has encompassed everything that shopping is about. Think of luxurious lines of boutique stores, every South African department store you can think of, anything that tickles the imagination in terms of entertainment, all packaged beautifully in the most tasteful decor and you have Gateway shopping mall. A masterpiece in retail creation.
Gateway is Durban shopping in its absolute prime. There isn't a shop in this shopping mall that shouldn't be, and there isn't a shop that you can think of that is not there. You should probably spend an entire day surveying all the different elements that each store has to offer, if not spread it over a few days of retail sumptuousness. Gateway Theatre of Shopping is exactly that: a theatre of shopping paradise that contains everything you could possibly imagine or desire from your shopping experience. Be your preference bags, shoes, clothing, music, jewellery, bargains, ethnic clothing or food, you will find only the best here, and more than likely pick it up for a bargain price. Designer stores compliment the department stores, and floating take away bars enhance the impressive restaurants. Everything in Gateway is a zen combination of all opposites, perfectly mixed up in a composition of enticing retail encounters.
One thing that the Gateway Theatre of Shopping is not short of is entertainment. Movie theatres and gourmet restaurants can be expected from any substantial Durban shopping mall, but Gateway takes it one step further with the Imax Theatre; Barnyard Theatre; Cinema Nouveau; 4 x 4 track; skatepark; Wavehouse; The Rock Indoor Climbing wall; Fantasy Forest gaming centre and a complete function and conferencing centre. To say that Gateway shopping centre has it all is by no means an exaggeration. It could possibly be one of the most prominent and memorable shopping experiences in South Africa itself, let alone KwaZulu Natal. A must see and a must experience for all visitors to the Durban area, especially for those coming to experience Durban shopping at its most extensive.
