About Oriental City
This group is for photos of Oriental City, a large shopping mall in the North Western suburb of London, UK called Colindale. For many years Oriental City (formerly called Yaohan Plaza) has been the hug of the Asian community in London. The mall has a huge super market catering for all the major Asian regions, a video games arcade, shops selling Chinese and other Asian goods ranging from house-hold decoration to kitchenware and clothes. The centre is brimming full of top quality Chinese restaurants and boasts an amazing traditional village square style food court where restaurants serve out great food from regions such as China, Malaysia, Korea, Japan, South India and more.
Sadly, Oriental City has been bought up by a large national company who run hundreds of DIY stores throughout the UK. The whole place will be shut down on June 1st, 2008 and replaced in due course by another DIY store. All the restaurants, the super market and other stores inside the centre are being shut down. Some of the restaurants are relocating but many of them are not. The Asian community in London has fought a long and drawn out battle to keep Oriental City going but eventually they had to relent to the power of the Goliath DIY store.
If you have photos from Oriental City, be it off the delicious food that's served up there or the stores, people and other interesting things located there, then please upload your photos and videos to this group.
