Fodor's Expert Review Riviera Shopping City
Odessa
On the outskirts of town, the enormous Riviera Shopping City is a good spot to check out how Ukrainians are increasingly getting their shopping done—in American-style malls. Riviera has more than 200 local and international chain stores—from Mango to United Colours of Benetton—along with a bowling alley, a kids' area, a movie theater, and plenty of fast food joints. There's also a large branch of the French supermarket chain, Auchan.
