Golden Resources Mall

Golden Resources Shopping Mall, also known as Jin Yuan, is a sizable mall that is situated close to the northwest Fourth Ring Road in Beijing, People's Republic of China. It was the biggest mall by gross leasable space when it first opened. When South China Mall in Dongguan, China, was finished in 2005, it overtook other malls as the second-largest in the world. Changchunqiao Station on Line 10 of the Beijing Subway serves as its entrance.

After 20 months of construction, the mall was finished on October 20, 2004, and it opened for business four days later. When the mall opened, the actual number of customers was far lower, as few as 20 in an hour, compared to the developer's initial forecast of 50,000 daily. The costs of the majority of the items sold within the mall at the time were much above what the majority of regular Chinese people could afford. The mall's location between the third and fourth ring roads in Beijing's sparsely populated outer suburbs made it quite difficult to reach as well.

The number of shoppers has grown significantly over the years due to the expansion of the Chinese middle class, and the mall is now very busy on weekends. Across the street, a second section of the mall opened. As Beijing's metropolitan area has grown, the mall is now bordered by a large number of apartment buildings.

Access to the mall was made easier in 2012 with the completion of the Changchunqiao station on Beijing Subway Line 10. Line 12 is a second subway line that will serve the mall; it will likely open in 2023.
