Huge shopping areas, a large number of boutiques with a wide range of goods, it is very convenient, you do not need to run around the city, but you can come to one geolocation and buy a lot of necessary things in one place. It's nice and convenient.
But..! Unfortunately, we have to admit that this facility does not keep up with modern service standards. There are a lot of inconvenient points, to which the administration, unfortunately, does not react in any way. In such huge areas, there is almost a complete absence of benches, zones or recreation islands where you can sit down and relax. Since wandering through all these galleries, you can wind up more than one kilometer. There are no places where you can get some drinks or snacks on the go, and going to a nearby building, to a restaurant to drink, is completely unrealistic. There are endless problems with the locker room, sometimes it is there, sometimes it is not there, sometimes it works, sometimes it does not work. You must admit that walking in warm clothes for several hours, with bags, with strollers is very, very uncomfortable. Separately, I would like to mention the sidewalk, which is located along Zh. Zhabaev Street, between the Taiga and the bus stop. What happens here in winter is just a horror, a real obstacle course of ice craters. This section of sidewalk, which belongs to the shopping center, is never cleaned(!) And looking at all this sad list of shortcomings, one gets the impression that the administration deliberately doesn't give a damn about both clients and the business that is entrusted to them. As a result, a well-founded result follows, the Taiga shopping center is becoming less and less popular with city residents every year, despite such a favorable location. IT'S A PITY.(!)
A good shopping mall. Vegetables and fruits are beautiful and fresh, but often more expensive than in other stores. A large selection of clothes and household goods. But in winter, it is very slippery near this shopping center, which makes it difficult for the elderly to visit it.
A large selection of various products from pastries to children's toys, reasonable prices. Among the disadvantages - there are no exchangers and very little Parking, there is often not enough space if you laugh by car
