One of the world's largest outdoor shopping plazas, this enormous shopping mall's visually appealing layout thrills locals and tourists alike.

In Short
The scent of plumeria flowers greets you as you enter this 50-acre, open-air shopping heaven. From some of Hawaii's most unique shops to chains including Tiffany & Co. and Williams-Sonoma, the variety is staggering. (There are more than 290 stores and restaurants.) In general, prices are lower than at Waikiki's boutiques, so it's understandable why people come from as far as Tahiti just to do their holiday shopping. After you've saturated your senses with a few choice purchases, head to the food court or catch the daily live entertainment at center court.
