5 Breathtaking Malls for Christmas Shopping

Shopping malls have become the hotspot for crazed, desperate, determined and sometimes dreary holiday shoppers trying to check off every item on their Christmas list. To help ease the stress, blog 4 of our 12 Days of Christmas series, lists the top 5 malls for Christmas shopping. These malls provide an unforgettable visual experience that wows customers and makes holiday shopping more enjoyable.

Mall of America

One of the original mega malls, Mall of America is so big it could hold 7 Yankee stadiums! With more than 500 shops, 50 restaurants and extreme entertainment options that include an indoor amusement park, MoA gives that heady blend of retail, entertainment, and “Wow!” factor.

Also, when you need a break from Christmas shopping, make sure to visit Nickelodeon Universe, Underwater Adventures Aquarium, and A.C.E.S. Flight Simulator.

Tyson’s Corner Center

Tyson’s Corner Center is the largest shopping mall in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area. It was one of the first super-regional malls in the country, drawing customers from a multi-state area.

In addition to its 300+ luxury shops and restaurants, and a children’s play area sponsored by National Geographic, the mall is known for its lively walkway, The Plaza. The Plaza is home to exceptional holiday festivities such as the Tysons Christmas Market. It also offers a fun change of scenery from the madness inside the mall and a literal breath of fresh air.

San Antonio River Walk

Voted one of the 25 Best Shopping Cities in the U.S, San Antonio offers excellent shopping opportunities in the form of traditional malls, eclectic boutiques, art galleries and local artisan shops.

Its famous River Walk is lined with bars, shops, restaurants, nature, and public art. It also offers a much-needed reprieve from holiday shopping.

During the holiday season, the River Walk is transformed into a wondrous spectacle of almost 2 million lights.

To add further Christmas cheer, the Ford Holiday Boat Caroling takes place each night on decorated barges from 6:15 to 8:30 pm.

The Grove

The Grove is a Los Angeles shopping staple. You can expect lots of trendy stores, bargains, celebrity sightings and a few paparazzi.

Holiday festivities officially kick off with the annual The Grove Christmas Tree Lighting. People say it is the West Coast’s most anticipated holiday event. The event features star-studded entertainment with classic Christmas songs, and Santa Claus’ arrival. You can also see the season’s first “snowfall,” the lighting of the tree, and a fireworks finale.
