Barbie Flag Ship Store

Mattel has opened a Barbie flagship store in Shanghai, China to mark Barbie's 50th birthday.

This is a haven for Barbie lovers. The House of Barbie is a six-storey, pink and sparkling building dedicated to all things Barbie, including toys, clothing and books. There are display cases with dolls from the Barbie range over the past 50 years which are available as exact replicas to purchase, and customer designed dolls.

It doesn't stop there... they have a hair and nail salon, a gelato bar and a top floor restaurant.

A must see if you are visiting Shanghai, however Mattel has more stores planned world wide.
