The Trafford Centre is a large indoor shopping centre and leisure complex located in the Greater Manchester. It is popularly known for its vivid and quirky resemblance to a rococo/late baroque architectural style. The centre is the 6th largest shopping centre in the UK by retail size. It also boasts Europe's largest food court in the Orient hall and the UK's busiest cinema.
The Orient - primarily a 1,600-seat food court which is mainly themed on a ship but incorporates themed designs from around the world including China, New Orleans, Egypt, Italy, America and Morocco.
The Great Hall - houses an elegant sweeping staircase featuring hundreds of metres of marble balustrade from China, and the largest Chandelier in the world. The chandelier has three levels of plant walkways inside, is around 11 m (36 feet) wide and 15 m (49 feet) high, weighs around five tonnes, and has more lighting control systems than most shopping centres.
Barton Square - Barton Square is located to the west of the main building and is linked to the rest of the centre via a glazed bridge. The architecture is based on an Italian square and includes a large fountain as well as a campanile tower.
