Beautiful place to shop, window shop, and especially to go for a walk. Great outdoor seating and music on the second floor.

I typically detest malls, outdoor malls included, but this one is an enchanting mixture of elegant open space, great variety of unique and high end stores, and the grounds are sprinkled with amazing places to sit and relax that are especially comfortable. The variety of seating is a big draw for me for taking breaks while shopping, and they are typically located in spots that are great for people watching while somehow being off on your own. The fountains are gorgeous and the space is artistically designed. The stores that I love are too long to list. There is something here for everyone.
