6. La Arcada

SANTA BARBARA.   This quaint, character-filled shopping venue is as good for relaxing as it is for shopping. Marked by a multi-faced, chiming clock, the entrance leads to a variety of pleasant shops, cafes, and galleries. If folks accompanying you don't want to browse, they'll be pleased to observe La Arcada's landscaping, fountains, and many bronze statues. Plus, there are plenty of benches where you (and they) can catch your breath before moving on.   (© 10Best)
