Rio Sur Mall

Opened in 2011, this is one of the city's newest shopping areas, and it's home to some of Medellín's best nightlife. Head to the seventh floor for clubbing at Kukaramakara and be sure to check out the rooftop bar, Delaire Sky Lounge. There are a handful of boutique shops, but less variety than in the larger El Tesoro.
