Answer 1

Answer:

E) theme/festival center.

Explanation:

A theme or festival center is basically a shopping mall or strip mall that focuses primarily on tourists. It combines shopping, entertainment, dining and sometimes even architectural themes. My favorite example is the Lincoln Road Mall in South Beach which has bars, stores, restaurants, etc. And most importantly, I lived there for a couple of years. It was great until European tourists flooded it during August and September, the rest of the year is a really fine place.
