Ah. Shopping. The Las Vegas way! Don't expect to simply pop into stores, select your items and plonk down cash. Shopping in Las Vegas is like making love. It's about fantasy, sensuality and delayed gratification.
One moment you're ambling down spacious walkways alongside Venetian canals and gondolas (Grand Canal Shoppes at the Venetian), the next moment you're in ancient Rome with awe-inspiring columns and arches, fountains and domes (Forum Shops at Caesar's, near Bally's ).
Enter colonial Africa with its moorish architecture at the mystical, magnificent Aladdin (Desert Passage Shopping Area, with 500,000 sq. feet of indoor shopping. Collect your discount coupons and free gift while checking in!)
In this whimsical shopping fantasyland called Las Vegas, you'll find everything from refined upscale stores, sensible budget stores, hard-nosed bargain shops, factory-direct discount stores, exotic gift boutiques, rare antique stores.you name it!
The South end of Las Vegas Boulevard (a.k.a. the Strip) is where most of the shopping is concentrated.
Check out the distinctive upscale stores at MGM Grand and head to the street-level Asian café Ah Sin ( Paris Las Vegas ) for a hearty breakfast. You're now ready for all the walking and exploring that accompanies shopping at Las Vegas.
First stop is the extravagant 32,000 foot Rue de la Paix, the upscale shopping arcade at (where else?) Paris . After tramping down the cobbled streets and taking in this exotic shopping experience, head straight for the razzle-dazzle of the Bellagio .
The Bellagio Atrium ( Bellagio ) is where you will find exclusive Designer stores such as Armani, Chanel, Gucci and Prada. You'll be equally tempted with Tiffany & Co, Bellagio Collections, Tutto (branded merchandise and gifts), Capri (swim and activewear). Those who appreciate the finer side of life will love the unique jewelry and watches at Tesorini and the magnificent collection of art posters and gift items at the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art.
Inspired by the magnificence of the Roman architecture, The Forum Shops near Bally's promise a treat for every Vegas shopper. With grand columns and arches, cobbled streets and a domed "sky" that changes like the real one.
The Forum offers incredible upscale and mid-range shopping. At our last count there were 111 shops to choose from, including the likes of Gucci, Versace, Hugo Boss, Louis Vuitton, Ann Taylor, Guess and Banana Republic.
You'll find specialty branded items that are hard to get elsewhere - including sizzling Gold compacts from Estee Lauder, Stuart Weitzman's rhinestone-studded shoes and a variety of unique outlets such as Magic Masters, Just for Feet and Caesar's Exclusively! The pretty porcelain items make for highly affordable gifts.
Off to the Mirage , where you will enjoy some fantastic onsite shopping and (of course) a filling lunch at one of their 12 theme restaurants - set amid a gigantic indoor tropical rainforest. A tram service connects the Mirage with Treasure Island, where the critically-acclaimed show Mystere is staged at Buccaneer Bay.
At Treasure Island you're just one block away from the Fashion Show Mall (what a relief for your poor aching feet!) Located on the Strip at Spring Mountain, the Fashion Show Mall is equally popular with tourists and locals (who know a good bargain when they see it). Shop at over 140 stores including the famed department stores such as Macy's, Saks Fifth Avenue, Dillard's, Neiman Marcus and others of similar stature. You can recreate your own casino back home by shopping here for gaming tables, gaming books, dice, cards and a whole lot more. Get lucky!
Other shopping notables include the Boulevard Mall- Nevada's largest mall - near Flamingo . With over 170 shops and palm-lined walkways, the Boulevard Mall offers affordable shopping and an eclectic collection of large and small shops (Wet Seal, Nature Company, The Limited and Sweet Factory).
Don't forget the Las Vegas Chinatown Plaza, near the Sahara . The Nascar café at the Sahara Hotel offers one of the newest "Strip" attractions - "Speed", the fastest roller coaster in Las Vegas. Take your pick from Sahara's eclectic mix of shopping (7 unique onsite stores), dining and entertainment options. Just across the street from the Sahara , there's Bonanza, touted to be the 'World's Largest Gift Shop'. Amazing!
By now you should be itching for a good bargain. You won't be disappointed at the Belz Factory Outlet. 580,000 sq. feet of bargain hunters' paradise right here on the Strip. Save as much as 70% off retail prices at 155 factory-direct outlets offering everything from luggage, electronics, designer jewelry and clothes, shoes, cosmetics, linen, toys, tableware and cutlery - all under one roof.
If the kids are clamoring for a break, zip to M&M's World and Ethel M Chocolates near MGM Grand . 30,000 sq. feet and 4 stories of finger-lickin' chocolate. Bliss!
Just 2 miles off, Sam's Town offers the most dazzling water-and-laser show, "Sunset Stampede". Don't miss it while you're here!
Meadow's Mall on the West side (Meadows Lane) is a favorite shopping hangout frequented by locals (who know a good deal when they see it). Texas Station is just one mile shy- yumm, you can almost hear the steak sizzle.
Finally, take a nostalgic trip to the antique dealers at East Charleston Blvd- which never ceases to amaze with its highly individual stores.
Vegas has a way of making you lose all sense of time and space. But then, isn't that why you're here? |
