Tsawwassen Mills - A Beautiful Shopping Mall with Indigenous Artwork in Delta, B.C.





We are travelling again! This time our destination is on the west coast of Canada .

After landing in the Vancouver Airport, we were picked up by Sharon and driven to our conference site in Delta, British Columbia,  a suburb of the city of Vancouver.















We got to the hotel and it was a little too early for us to check into our room, so we drove around to check out the city.





We visited the Tsawwassen Mills Shopping Mall not far from our retreat hotel.


















Opened in October 2016, the Tsawwassen Mill shopping mall is a relatively new mall












It has many high end and interesting stores.

























I noticed that there was something different about the design and decorations of this mall.
























We saw some unusual and beautiful sculptures and columns placed throughout the mall.















Many of these sculptures reminded me of animals and native arts.






















There were native arts displayed and hung from the ceiling.





















Instead of  boring neutral coloured ceramic tiles on the floor, the mall has shiny hardwood flooring with creative designs and vibrant colours.





A spacious area for visitors to enjoy their food and rest their tired feet














I discovered that this mall has been  built on Tsawwassen First Nations land, in Delta.




This explains the unique design and artworks with a distinctive indigenous theme throughout the Tsawwassen Mills Shopping Mall. 















Another special feature in this mall is the abundance of rest and seating area for visitors.














Seating areas are placed throughout the mall 







The availability of these many comfortable seating is a welcome sight for shoppers and visitors to the mall.











We did not plan to visit a big shopping mall on this trip.

We came across it by accident and
enjoyed visiting the Tsawwassen Mills Shopping Mall in Delta, British Columbia!
