This tropical paradise boasts the world's largest indoor wave pool and tallest indoor permanent bungee tower, as well as more than 17 unique waterslides, ranging from beginner and intermediate to advanced and extreme, and play features.(From their website)
I have never been there. I love to swim, but I hate crowds and it is always crowded. Except when it's not open yet ;)
click any photo to enlarge
It is on the south side of the complex, so gets natural daylight, but, only has the one viewing window, so the photos are a bit limited.
If you prefer skating, there is an Ice Palace too. NHL sized rink, that also gets plenty of natural daylight.
I think that is Ringette the children are playing there.
On the second floor around the rink, are several tropical fish tanks, these are the best photos I could manage with the sun pouring in through the roof.
Have a good day all.

WEM is so extreme. Love your fish shots.
Great shots, sis!
Happy Valentine's Day.
I quite like that rink and think it would be fun to skate there but I'd feel really funny about swimming at a mall.
That it is Leah! Thanks.
Thanks Sis, you too!
Hilary, the skating would be fine, but yeah, the swimming, not so much.
Amazing, thanks for sharing.
Happy Valentine's Day!
Messymimi, it is overwhelming. Thanks.
That is incredible! My children would love to spend time (lots of time) at this mall!
I've seen this mall on the travel channel. Very cool indeed.
Barrie, I am sure they would love it!
Travis, it is quite the place.
Even for the sake of the palm trees I would not brave the crowds.
Palms. Alberta. Does Not Compute.

Mary Anne, you are so right ;)
I’m more and more amazed every time I see these posts. You have an indoor beachy/pooly thing? And indoor ice-skating rink? That thing is not a mall it’s an autonomous nation!
Your mall sounds an entertaining spot. Fish swimming there is fine but you're not going to catch me in there.
Scott, it certainly tries to be ;)
Dawn, I'm with you on that!
I've seen malls with skating rinks, and malls with ferris wheels, but I've never seen a mall with a swimming pool! Not sure how comfortable I'd be jumping into that pool...public pools gross me out!
Angie, especially with the really big viewing window!
Thanks for the tour, Reb. I'd heard of the wondrous West Edmonton Mall of course, but hadn't been there or seen many pics.
If I ever get over there, I do believe I'd be agog - like when in Toronto with all those real tall buildings everywhere.
Frank, it is quite the mall. If you visit, I might be persuaded to tour you around the mall - small bills though, okay?
wow!!
that place is huge
and here I thought Olympic stadium in Montreal was amazing
Dianne, it is a bit over the top ;)
This is amazing! I've seen skating rinks at malls (there's one in Portland, Oregon) but never a waterpark. How would you ever tell you kids "no" if you went to this place? I'd have to keep the existence of WEM a total secret until the kids were teenagers!
Karen, it's big enough to never let them see it ;)
