áruházakon
Áruházakon is a term referring to shopping malls or department stores in Hungarian. These are large, enclosed retail spaces that house a variety of independent shops, businesses, and often restaurants and entertainment facilities. The concept of the áruház originated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a way to consolidate numerous smaller businesses under one roof, offering customers a more convenient shopping experience. Modern áruházakon can range in size from modest local centers to vast complexes covering many thousands of square meters, attracting visitors from surrounding areas.
Typically, an áruház will feature anchor stores, which are large, well-known retailers, alongside smaller specialty shops.
